Richmond, Va motorcycle riders

blackfang · 05-15-2011, 09:25 AM

I thought I posted this here, but i guess not.

For my fellow motorcyclists, Quaker Steak and Lube hosts bike nights on Wednesdays starting at 5 until about 11 or 12. Being the weather is changing, the first bike night of the season started on the 20th of April. Wife and I go and it is a blast.

For those that have never been there, it is right next to Hooters on W Broad St. and is always a great turnout of a few hundred bikes. They have a few vendors there, some contests and raffles.

Bump. Anyone heading out there this week? The past few weeks have been a decent turnout.

burtonrider3889 · 06-06-2011, 10:59 PM

I would like to go at some point.

blackfang · 06-08-2011, 09:22 PM

Wife and I rode out tonight. There was a nice turnout.

migs76 · 07-12-2011, 03:18 PM

anybody going this week?

burtonrider3889 · 07-12-2011, 04:51 PM

I'll be busy tomorrow night, so that's a negative for me.

Took a ride to the mountains on Friday. Snapped some cool pics. Posted up a thread over on SVrider. I don't feel like hosting them everywhere so here's the link!

I will be there tomorrow with some of the technicians and service writers I work with.

On another note, RIP to Henrico County Police Officer Thomas Berry, who was struck by a car today on John Rolfe parkway as he was riding his motorcycle and died at the hospital. My wife and son saw it happen and when she came out of the Martins there, they were doing CPR on him. Now he is worried that we ride so now I have to finally have "the talk" with him. he is 10 so hopefully he will get the jist of things.

Here is a pic she took

Wife and I went last night and turnout wasn't as big. I would say probably because it was f'n hot!

burtonrider3889 · 07-27-2011, 06:01 PM

I'll be up at the lube tonight. Feel free to say hi if anyone else is up there.

migs76 · 07-27-2011, 06:22 PM

I'm making dinner for the kids right now. What time you rolling out?

migs76 · 07-27-2011, 08:25 PM

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that .was you pulling out as i was pulling in. No homo

burtonrider3889 · 07-27-2011, 09:38 PM

Oh dang. Probably. What were u riding?

migs76 · 07-27-2011, 09:55 PM

black ducati monster. black mesh jacket, black helmet. literally crossed right in front of you in the lot coming out of the row and gave you the nod. some nice bikes there.

burtonrider3889 · 07-27-2011, 10:10 PM

Oh dang! I saw a black ducati monster that I thought was yours originally parked right near my bike. Like a row over.

migs76 · 07-27-2011, 10:19 PM

okay maybe it wasn't you then. Lol. I saw 2 other sv's. Wasn't sure if those were you either. I'll be sure to hang out a bit longer. A round on me if I see you.

Sounds good. I saw two other SV's. There was a grey full faired, a blue FIRST gen naked, and then mine which is a second gen. Mine has a black frame.

blackfang · 08-14-2011, 02:24 PM

Wife and I went last Wednesday and there had to be at least 700 bikes or more. Anyone going this week?

migs76 · 08-14-2011, 04:06 PM

i'll try to make it this week.

VIR EURORALLY · 08-14-2011, 06:28 PM

I may be able to join in soon. Looking at the possibility of moving to the area.

blackfang · 08-14-2011, 07:49 PM

Sweet. What part?

VIR EURORALLY · 08-15-2011, 01:04 AM

Not sure yet. I prefer to be on the Southwest corner somewhere between 360 and Midlothian. Depends on where I end up finding work at.

blackfang · 11-06-2011, 06:39 PM

Well it looks like another season is coming to an end. Just a recap from 2011 Bike Night's. Here are some of the bike night pics.
