We had 20+ riders in the Dallas, TX ride.  It was great time and look forward to going again.

I am happy to announce that at one stop I counted 85 bikes here on the Denver ride.   And I must say there was a surprising number of women who came out to either ride solo or on the back with their man.  There were several people taking video with their Go-Pros and such, and we even had a chase car with 2 photographers!  The whole group is collaborating all their video and photos together and one guy is working on making a mini movie.  We had talked for the last couple weeks how we wanted to make the DGR for Denver the Best!  And it was certainly a whole lot of fun.

Then towards the end of the ride, the owners and staff of Erico Motorsports were kind enough to open their doors for us to admire all of their bikes and even had a giant cooler full of ice cold beer for us.     :D

And a cool video for good measure.   ;)

A walk around of almost every bike on the ride at City Park in downtown Denver.

  • Yes, shrubberies are my trade. I am a shrubber.

By luck I was driving down the Kings Road London on Sunday, and heard the thunder of a mass of bikes... I asked where they were off to, and why and they informed me they were on the DGR and were off to The Ship in Wandsworth, we high tailed it to the pub, and sure enough, a throng of suited bikers, great day, will definitely go along next year. After chatting to my step daughter in Auckland, we found out she had attended the same ride in NZ !!!! Motorbikes.. You can't knock em !! :)
Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say Ni at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land, nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress in this period in history.

One of the guys put together a really cool video of the ride in Denver.  I make an appearance at 1:43.   ;)

Yeah, that gas tank kind of sticks out, huh.   ;)  Watching it again, I'm actually in there again at 2:53 getting off of my bike.  :)

I actually remember seeing his bike!  There was a 2nd one if I'm not mistaken.  I believe 1 was black and the other was gold.....   ???
