Rolling Thunder 2011

[weezer]

Made the ride to D.C. to participate in "Rolling Thunder 2011" (not that far of a ride from PA) and had a fantastic trip.

The wife and I left on Friday and spent Friday night and all day Saturday riding around D.C. and Virginia. We visited lots of interesting sites (WWII, Korea, and Viet Nam Memorials). They estimated over 250,000 bikes were in the D.C. area this past weekend...bikes everywhere, on the streets, on the sidewalks, and even parked in the grass all around the Memorial Mall...it was awesome!

The majority (80% or so) were Harleys, but nearly all makes were represented...there were 4 other Nomads in the precession behind me...nice!

Hope some of ya'll were able to make it, and maybe a "KawaNOW" group ride could be organized for the 25th Anniversary ROLLING THUNDER 2012 next year...what do you guys think??

If anyone is interested in organizing a KawaNOW group ride to D.C. next year, let me know. I can start working on organizing something, and maybe we can get a large group of Nomads on the road instead of all those Harleys ;D

Maybe we could get group leaders in each of the sectors to organize their members and have large groups converge on D.C. for a massive Meet & Greet !!

If anyone is interested, let me know....Ride Safe
