Is that the show at the Javits center? I always had a good time starting with the beer trucks. Last one I went to was in '99. I remember passing up a one piece all weather riding suit for $75 bucks. It was temp rated to 30 below zero and waterproof. I always kick myself for not buying it.

The NYPD ignores the federal laws that permit motorcycles to ride in HOV lanes. They ticket every motorcycle they can. I don't know how the Feds don't have some sort of injuction against them - oh, I forgot, all politicians are liars and cheats. All cops suck and NYPD cops suck a lot worse than most. Screw New York. And if Orange Co. Choppers comes to Javits Center, screw them too - their TV soap opera and their ugly motorcycles both suck.

Jersey boy here in Fla for my company doing work. Still boycotting that frikken city though, the noise ordinance and motorcycle confisication attempt was the last straw, the rebs would never do that, they still believe in individual freedom and liberty, not what you guys have.
