Went on the Purple Heart ride today and EVOs were well represented. I've been told that no photos means it never happened..LOL.. Here's just a few:











The cream and gold FLHTC in the upper right hand corner, way in the back is my bike.

 

I can go forever around my neighborhood and not see another EVO, this morning there were two in my yard(one was mine though)....nice to see a qroup of older bikes making a statement.

 

You been up to the re-built Cottonwood up in Blair? Nice place. Much nicer than before the flood.

Anyway, the reason I mention it is I ran up there last weekend. Must have been 30 bikes in the lot. Mine was the only Evo. That kind of surprised me.

Nice pics, Falcon.

 

Tell me more about that Mountain Fried Chicken truck... lol
This are some really good quality photos.

If I stop by the local indy just up the road from my house there's always at least 3...mine and the owners two FXR's, one of which is a beast of a hot rod and the other is his daily rider FXRT. Sometimes there's several Evo's there. If I go to the local dealership bike night BBQ to snag a burger and check out bikes, I'm usually the only Evo. My bike seems to draw a lot of attention. Last summer I participated in a funeral procession ride for my buddy's dad. There was probably 100 bikes or more, and in a sea of brand new shiny twinkie baggers and Softails, the ol' 97 Dyna was the one that people were stopping to look at and ask questions about which surprised me.

 

Sweet!

I always think of 97baggers tag line, "What's wrong with having the only Evo in the parking lot?" Ha

We attended the annual "Deck Party" at the The Bridge Tavern and there two Evos there, mine and one other Fat Boy.

Thanks for the pics!

 

The Mountain Chicken was what they fed us at the end of the ride. It was great fried chicken. I usually eat mine with a little Texas Pete. They also had home fires, beans and really good rolls. The ride was called "Bike Bikes for Purple Hearts". It was coordinated by some good friends of mine. The line of bikes going down the highway was 1.2 miles long. We had LEO escort all the way. A really well done ride. There were more EVOs than this there.

Here's a portion of the line of bikes:

 

At Sturgis last year, we parked out front of the Knuckle and went in for a few beers and dinner. Came back out, and in the sea of $50,000 big wheel baggers and brand new Twinkies, there were a bunch of people oogling my buddy's bone stock, mud-splattered 94 Heritage. They've become a rarity I guess, but we're rolling two Evos out there again this year!

 

[B]Haven't been there, might have to be on my to do this summer list. Flood was a hell of a thing....The omaha tribe's casino and fuel plaza were ruined by it, new casino building but no replacement for fuel plaza, water undermined the old building and made it unstable. Were about 100 jobs lost for about a year and a half.

 

At MB Bike Week old guys are always pointing at my bike as I go by. It's only the old guys that recognize that it's an 85th anniversary edition.
