Rally pics

Post by tommyj27 »

I went to the Lightning Run today, a local rally that benefits Diabetes research at the UofMN. My bike is still on the DL so I took my camera instead. I ended up volunteering to help with bike parking (my Dad's cousin is on the event board) and met some cool people, even if they are all Harley freaks. I put some cool shots of bikes on my website if anyone is interested (some cool custom paint jobs). Here are some of my favorite shots. Not a whole lot of sport bikes to be seen, but there were some.

These two bikes belong to a local custom paint guy and his wife. They were competing against each other in the Metric class for the bike show.

Another one that I think belongs to custom paint guy.

Everyone lining up for the parade.

I'm not sure exactly why you would need to make your Boss Hoss any more powerful, but this guy had a NOS can hanging off the back.

All the police cruisers that escorted the parade.

Yeah, there were a lot of bikes there with that guy's name on them, they all looked just as impressive; lots of attention to detail.

Nice pics. That husband and wife duo have a nice couple of bikes. The orange one looks to be a late 80's early 90's Gixxer.

Hi,
Glad the show was for a good cause, but those two top bikes YUK the orange looks like some one let a 3 year old loose with a box of crayons.
The blue colour is quite nice BUT flamed how 60's is that :headscratch:
