For anyone who ever happens to be in the twin cities area around the first thursday of the month, I highly recommend you make your way to Dulono's Pizza for "First Thursday". Here's what it's all about (http://www.motorbyte.com/mmm/pages/2003/56/reader56.htm) (most relavant info in 2nd paragraph)
I've been heading over there every month since June or July and it's a lot of fun to see the hundreds of bikes, especially all the crazy stuff. I'd say all the motorcycle stereotypes are represented there: of course the old Norton's that started it all, other classic brit bikes, italian bikes and jap bikes, old and new beemers, sportbikes, harleys, tourers, commuters, two stokes, busas, a few scooters and customs of all kinds. From brand new, high $$ raked out customs, to Boss Hoss's, to my favorite: the homemade choppers and bobbers with singles, twins, and I4s.
I think I saw 4 (maybe 5) Honda Hawks tonight and an 89 Honda CB1 (http://www.bikepics.com/pictures/121947/). I finally got to see the one of a kind Diesel, hydrostatic drive bike (http://www.hydraulicinnovations.com/) and a T-rex (http://www.trexvehicles.com/) three wheeled vehicle.
One of these days I'll remember to bring my camera AND have charged batteries.
Fricking chicken-tease. I never made it over then when I lived there, and my place was all of 5 miles away. :flipoff:
Someday I'll schedule a business trip for the first week of the month, and check it out.
Hey, she was there, ready and willing to satisfy you for all those years you lived here, don't call me a chicken tease :flipoff:
Let me know if you plan to be in the area
