2018 Steel Horse Rally

**BudMan** · 05-05-2018, 10:01 PM

Today Framer made the 200 mile trip from Oklahoma City to Fort Smith to check out the 4th annual Steel Horse Rally.
There were plenty of bikes to look at and time to have some ribs for lunch.
The weather was great and as always nice to see David.

Here’s a few pictures.

It’s was a beautiful day. It started off in the low 50’s and topped out in the low 80’s with light winds.
There were thousands of bike, mostly Harley-Davidson but we saw 4 Voyager’s ( Dave and I owned 2 of them)and a few Nomads.

I like the bug in the second pic (4 wheel version).

looked like a good time. Except for all those people.

Looking at the picture David took of Crystal and I on the balcony it's clear she has aged much better than I have.

Sorry to have to say it, but your right again. I had to look more than twice to figure who you were with!

BUT, in my defense, I am looking with one eye. Still adjusting but going well.

Jesse, I think it may be due to the fact that there is probably less wear and tear holding the reins than there is on the hitch pulling the wagon.

I know not nearly as much as you but I hate that this happened. Glad to hear you are adjusting to the change. All the best to you Jesse.
