Default Rolling Thunder 2010 - Who Is Riding/Rode or Observed this Weekend

Curious as to how many forum members are participating/participated in Rolling Thunder in Washington DC this weekend. Also if you did, how many miles did you travel and share your story if you like.

Me, I plan to travel 100 miles each way on Sunday with my local HOG Chapter and observe the parade.

I will be heading down later today from Bucks County, PA. Should be about 200 mile down. Gonna try and slip between the fore-casted thunderstorms.

I and about 40 others headed down from S.Jersey Sunday around 7 am. Been there for the 2006 Run but missed the last few due to various factors. They said there were over 100,000 bikes there in 2006, I expect more this year.

Local here, will start at Patriot HD with escorted Ride of the Patriots (about 4,000 bikes) to the Pentagon and after all bikes are in and staged, the ride. Did it last 2 years ago...there is a lot of time waiting while staging takes place, but it is well worth it.

Hope everyone had a good ride.

I went this afternoon, though just to observe. My bike is down in Florida and I work here in DC.

Uploaded some of my photos from Rolling Thunder, check them out:
