EMERALD COAST BIKEFEST 2009

I love riding to a destination with the anticipation of good times to come. For me, it just kicks the ride up a notch. Such is the case last weekend when we went to the Emerald Coast Bike Fest.
The ride south was pretty uneventful until we took one wrong turn into Blackwater State Park and wound up on a road so twisted, I felt like a mouse caught in a maze. After we wasted 30 minutes on the "scenic" detour, we found our way out, and made our way to the rally grounds at the Holt Drag Strip. Our group was pretty easy to find because we like to park in the same area every year. Besides, they staked our territory with the camp flag that reads "Work Sucks! Let's Ride!

As we maneuvered the Glides into the circle of RV's that were going to be home for the next couple days, we were greeted by waves and woo hoo's from our pals who were already getting in the rally spirit. I didn't even get my helmet off good before Perfect Timing came up and greeted me with a ziplock bag full of jello shooters. She gave me a big hug and said, "What's your flavor?"

Woo Hoo! Let the party begin!

Last weekend's weather was perfect for an outdoor rally. We had beautiful blue skies and bright sunshine mingled with a playful breeze that would dance across the grounds keeping the 80 degree temps from being too oppressive. The warm days were followed by cool nights which provided a perfect backdrop for listening to some good music and watching "Sugar" the bull play with her scantily clad challengers.

And of course, every time you turned around, someone wanted to show you their tits. Geesh!

No stranger to bike rallies, the talented Geneva entertained us in her usual biker rock style. The crowd enjoyed the music and it seemed to play on everyone's good spirits. She was definitely warming up the crowd for the upcoming wet t-shirt contest.

Moving around the grounds became a game of imagination. I got a kick out of the different ways folks were moving around from one place to another.

Here ya go! This chick redefined the "pillion" seat.

You have to admit... he's got one hell of a beer holder, heh?

And of course, we can't forget the coolest reason we come here...
The need for speed!

I have so much more to share, but time is short. Here's a tease of what's to come...

INCOMING... HANDGRANADES!!!
BAGR4LF AND BEST IN SHOW
WET T-SHIRTS AND LITTLE PECKERS
FUN ON TWO WHEELS
BIKE FEST WRAP UP

Author's note: I'm headed down to Panama City tomorrow for Thunder Beach Weekend as well as my annual kick ass Kentucky Derby Party. Since my good friend Red Light Roxanne is this years hostess, I assure you, it will be a grand time!

Have a nice weekend everyone!

Woo hoo! Party on Lady R! After these two weekends, I hope you don't have a physical exam coming up or anything cuz if you had to give a urine sample it'll probably have an olive in it!

mq01 said...

Webster... We saw that couple several times over the weekend and I don't think her ass was ever on the back once. Yepper, the drags were cool!

Ann... We had a great time as usual. I will get busy and try to get the posts up. I have lots to share after these two weekends!

Baron... LOL! How convenient! Can't wait to share more!

Dean... Maybe I'll be home long enough now to bring it to you. I had a great couple weeks and I'm tired, but I promise I try to hurry! Shew!

B.B... If you lived closer to me, you would have to become a Derby girl with me. You would have a blast! I always do!

Masterchief... I would love to read your post about YOUR new bike, but don't break the bank! I wouldn't want your sweet wife's wrath down on me for startin' something! LOL!

Joker... Holy cow, you ain't kidding! I'll be able to ask the Dr. if he prefers me shaken or stirred. LOL!

Thank goodness this weekend is Mother's Day. I think it will be a pretty mellow weekend.

mq01... I went from Jello shots at Holt, to Mint Juleps in PC! I'll try to get some posts up about it soon. And yes, a good time it was!

Sweet! Awesome beer holder...where is the wet tshirt picts? Where can I get in on this action? Everyone around here is way to serious for me nowadays...maybe I should grow up or something.

Lady R (Di) said...

Dave... never grow up. It's way overrated!

Mr. Motorcycle said...

Love the booby helmets. Too bad a guy can't wear two helmets at once. I'd have to seriously think about getting a pair! Maybe they'll make dick helmets next, and we can ride around as dick heads.

But seriously, looks like you were having a great time. Glad you could get out there.

Lady R (Di) said...

Mr. M... LOL! Now that you mention it... we did have a dick head hat once! We used it to get more laughs. I finally let my brother keep it, cause he would wear it in public and try to go up to a girl and give her a head butt. Once they looked and saw what was poking them in the side of the head... well, let's just say he got a variety of responses.

I actually forgot about that hat. I'm going to have to try and find a picture. That may just have to be a POTW some day.
