Kentucky State HOG Rally

June 9-11 was the Kentucky State HOG Rally in Louisville. Our group stopped by the Patton Museum on Ft. Know before arriving at the rally site. At the dinner on Thursday night we met an official Col. Sander KFC ambassador, and had a great time at Casino Night. Kirby won a sign bottle of Jim Beam Black. On Friday we rode to Makers Mark and bought our signed black and gold dipped bottles of Makers Mark. We met our friends from Texas who were touring Kentucky. We had a great time on the Belle of Louisville Friday evening. On Saturday Jerri and I won the ring toss; and participated in the other games and the skills challenge. We had a great time in Louisville.

Wild Wonderful West Virginia

We're back riding with the Cave Country HOG Chapter, and our first ride was over the Memorial Day Weekend to West Virginia. Even though we lived 20 years in West Virginia, we never rode or even traveled to the southwestern section of the state. We stayed at Chief Logan Lodge, north of Logan, and certainly enjoyed riding the "roads less traveled". We had a great ride to the New River Gorge and actually rode the old road down the gorge, over the old bridge, and up the other side of the gorge. We even rode through Ansted where our favorite salsa and hot sauce is made, Blue Smoke. It certainly was a great trip and by the time we returned to Bowling Green we covered 1,147 in the 4 days of riding.
