Dear Sandman, I am intrigued by your ideas and wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Be careful though, there are some who define 'troll' as anybody who disagrees with them.

knigettes hospitaller- WOW. Did you really join in June just to add your off base scriptures?? There are alot of places you can go with like minded people who might appreciate it. I haven't seen one blogger hop on your rants and appreciate them. jmo

man I cannot believe how nosey, and messed up people are!! Pointing out how you do not approve of other people's life style choices, how they choose to dress ect. I have Tattoos all over my body,and I a member of the PTA. This IS MY LIFE, and it is ending one min. at a time. As for people who have loud bikes, and tans, and tattoos>>>> Thats who they are, who THEY choose to be, let them live how they want, and get of your high horse!! How are you any better than anyone else?? I can't even go to the store for grocerys without you types giving faces and pointing fingers, once a women took to swearing at me in front of my 2 yr old>>> I suppose this makes her better than me right?? Perfect is not a reality, it's an idea that does not exist.

I think you need to read up on the First Amendment.

LOL Gazettefan! And kudos to Albany, Kutter and all those who donated.

albany evidently didnt care about the noise or they wouldnt of had the stop there.

Is a noice test painful?

I got no problem with bikers having fun, just as long as they submit their bikes to a noice test as they enter town and pay their fines if they are too loud.

Town girl: Whadaya rebellin' against?

Brando: Whadaya got?

"Marlon Brando! Driven Too Far By His Own Hot Blood!" A bunch of "rugged" conformists and noisy poseurs who want pretend to be extras in a B-remake of "The Wild One"!
"There's currently no cure for any form of muscular dystrophy. Research into gene therapy may eventually provide treatment to stop the progression of some types of muscular dystrophy" From:

As long as Jerry's been talkin' about "his kids" (and he comes off just about as sincere), the only "cure" for muscular dystrophy is genetic testing and not passing on the genes (duh). Don't drink and drive? Don't drink and dive on down!
The reality of this ride is using the old "it's for charity" excuse for wanna-be, work-a-day adults to play Johnny Strabler for a few hours. Nothing against the event--well, except for the self-indulgent farce of backing up traffic for half an hour at intersections all over the county to facilitate this yahoo convoy, and of course the noise, pollution, bad tribal/skull/reaper tattoos, dye/perm jobs, boob implants, and fake tans, of course--but let's just call it what it is, eh?
Jus' tryin' to keep it real, bros--don't shoot the messenger (or back seat passenger)!

I am a committee member, and for the most part, our MDA committee is comprised of very dedicated folks and business people to make this a safe and rewarding ride for all those involved. The efforts put forward in 9 months of planning, show the rewards of our goodwill ambassador's smile, while he is in a wheelchair, as all the flagbikes went past him a Thresherman's Park. For the inconvenienced people, that had to wait, think about Dylan in the chair, and that this enjoyment is limited as is his life span.

crafty....i am not a thief.......i dont like you toan...LOL

I was told by the PD the city really doesnt have a noise ordinance...sorry you are such a poor sport what a great event

Don't you all know? All bikers are drunken murderous thieving perverts and must be dealt with! We must take their fuel efficient cycles away and replace them with nice quiet cars.
Get a life you biker bashing losers.

I just want to say Thank you to everyone who rode in this ride to help raise money for a cure. We have 9 gemerations in our family with Muscular Dystrophy. Without people like you to help raise money for this it would not be possible for research to help find a cure, or help provide wheelchairs for these kids when they can't walk anymore.
My husband and I also rode in the Tub Run and it was an awesome ride. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and god bless everyone of you that rode Saturday to raise money for this cause.

HURRAY FOR ALBANY THEY KNOW HOW TO DO IT FOR CHARITY ...YOU GOOOOOO YOU GOOOO

Ride, and the Lord rides with you. He sees your good hearts, and is glad, and beckons you to flock to his feast.

Did ya'll see that big guy with the shaved head and goatee riding a Harley? I thought he was in jail. It scared me. In fact, I kept seeing him, almost like he could be in several places at once. Weird.

Hamb?

I had the pleasure of serving hot dogs, pork sandwiches and water for donations at Kutter from 8-12 O'clock before the ride began.....
Couple of facts.
* NO BEER WAS SERVED at Kutter. That trailer was used to hold ice and cold water.
* Wonderful crowd. I have been to Sturgis many many times.....these folks here were awesome!
* ~$1700 was DONATED to this stand in that four hours, 100% going to MDA.
* This happens once a year, and the route is published ahead of time. It is wonderful when you ride to see the THOUSANDS of people (young and old) along the route waiving American Flags, and posting signs sayning Thank You. Uhhhh...not exactly what you would expect from Criminals....
* Lastly.....check the records...How many arrests were made or connected to this wonderful event??
Not everyones cup of tea, but who in their right mind would complain about a (40) minute delay, or some loud noise passing by that results in an amount of ~$1.4 MILLION raised by this group, and 100% of it given to this awesome cause.
The complainers here remind me of folks who were given a 15# Hamb for Easter FREE and complained because it had a bone in it....go figure.
MDA is awesome.

Or the usual routine of commeraderie, fund raising (breast cancer research, animal rescue clubs, humane society, etc), and enjoying Wisconsin in a way you can't do in a car!

I volunteered as a road guard on both legs of the ride-thank you to the radio club that volunteered their time to keep all informed on the status of the ride. For the most part, I saw responsible riders out having a good time for a good cause. Thank you to the SCW HOG chapter members who put in thousands of volunteer hours and to Kutter for sponsoring this amazing event!

no napalm what they were allowed to do was raise hundred s of thousands of dollar s for a great cause , you should go sometimes and see the people sitting with signs saying thank you for helping me or thank you for helping my family its amazing . not to mention the clubs and business that are helped at the place they arrive at. we only wish one year they would choose edgerton in this economy everyone could use a little help .

i didnt see any beer served at kutter at all the beer trailer was there. the only thing i seen taken from that trailer, water and food supplies for the hot dog and pull pork donation s only stand.

and the sound was like endless thunder what a ride

Whats wrong with drinking beer? Beer makes you smart, It made Bud wiser! Drink while you drive, face the traffic with confidence!

Worst sentance ever isnt the half of it displaced. They had a BEER TRAILER right at Kutter before the ride. Sorry, but alcohol and bikes dont mix.

Guys I was riding with on the way to Albany were fine. No screwing around (pet peeve of mine on large group rides with riders you dont know). After leaving Albany I ended up behind a couple of bikes with passengers that started screwing around. Passengers throwing things at eachother, weaving all over the road & purposely kicking up gravel on the sides of the road. I bailed after we went through Evansville with the bike having issues and wanted to get it home.

They chose the restaurant with the bidet.

What's your point? It was a great ride, and for a cause...

"Joy Richardson and Craig Torphy of Madison called the scene a mini Sturgis, N.D., which is famous for its annual motorcycle rally."
********
Ah.....Sturgis is in SOUTH DAKOTA....Hello.....??
