There is a bike blessing by the Chai Riders, a Jewish motorcycle club on Long Island this Sunday, 9/21/08. You don't have to be Jewish, although I am. I went last year and the food was great both at signup and at the BBQ after the ride. Since I'm not a member of the club I only have the info on the flyer at their website. Here is a copy and paste of it:

Does the Harley have to be Jewish? How can you tell?

Just kidding... God bless and ride safe.

 

Your Harley is Jewish if the pipe is cut off ...

 

I just knew somebody was going to go there!!

 

 

BBQ after the ride?

 

Are DOT approved Yarmulkes required?

j/k

 

When are they having one in Miami?....

 

Bet they didn't have pork ribs at that BBQ

 

If it ain't pork, it ain't BBQ. Except for Texans who don't know any better.
