It's better than 50-50 for me. I won't decide until Sunday morning, but I'll wear an STN shirt if I go.

I got roped into going to the Phillies game Sunday afternoon. Believe me, I'd rather be riding. Think I'll wear my STN hat to the game.

The weather is looking like a perfect day for a ride.
One of our dogs is very ill. We're on our way to the vet's in about a half hour. Keep your fingers crossed that it's something that will pass. If he's going to be okay, I'm going to be in Ephrata. It's about time I gave that a look.

I'll be there about 10:30 on the red ZX14 without a STN sticker on it, kinda like finding a needle in a hay stack
, looking for a couple of Blackbirds, should be fun.

It was the usual mob scene. I think I'm done with it for a while. Next month I'll do Martin's. The loud pipes save lives crowd have ruined it for me.
Got some really good riding in before and after the show

I headed through Ephrata after I stopped by Martin's. I didn't get into town until about 11:30, and there were so many Harleys coming out of there, I just kept going. I ended up heading to familiar territory, having a late lunch at the Airport Diner in Kutztown, then over to Cycle Gear on the edge of Allentown.

I pedaled there on my mountain bike with my 5 year old son on the back. We were there around 11am, and I was astounded by the number of bikes this month. The ball field was pretty well parked-up, and some guys were even parking along the creek-side bicycle/walking path. Of course I got laughed at for riding on my mountain bike, but for the heat I was glad to cruise through with shorts. I saw AirborneXX and his CBR-F2, but he was just leaving.

the food at Ephrata reminds me of those tins of powdered eggs, bacon, etc. you get in the field.
I'm glad I went to Martin's instead.
that was quite a crowd at Smatlz's HD. not the viffer type, though.
they waved me past.
nice selection at Martin's. triumph's, yamaha, a nice Ducati 996.

I've only been there once before, a few years ago and had gotten there late, after most people had left. This time we got there shortly after 10. What a zoo! Here's a couple of random pics:
This bike won prize for tallest handlebars. My buddy (who is over 6') is standing next to it for perspective:
