Has anyone seen this? Amazing!
All bikes are 1915 or older.
Got to see the whole group on my ride to work this morning! Stopped for gas and most were coming through to top off. Awesome to get to see these bikes up close and in "battle ready" condition - most were fairly well covered in oil. Much respect to these guys for actually riding these bikes instead of turning them into expensive pieces of "art" somewhere!
I really thought about heading west and following these guys instead of going on to work this morning...

Sure would have been nice to tag along... :dance:
You know I wonder if they passed thru Tellico Plains, TN on Monday. Reason I'm questioning it is I saw several older bikes like that being gassed up as Jeff and I were at the Cherohala Market. Then as we headed out to do a loop we came upon some photographers on the side of the road and those older bikes again....makes me wonder.

Was was y cool seeing these machines doing what they mere meant to be doing. As one competitor described it. "seeing America at 27mph."
