respect to the fallen ones - itsme67_imp - 05-24-2014
A German group of bikers organized a demonstration and charity ride (remembering bikers killed in accidents) yesterday. It was wonderful to see free riders, MC members, and street fighter, chopper, sports bikes etc. standing together for their rights and showing respect to the fallen ones.
And the CB in the middle of all of them.

A worthy cause for a ride. Thanks for sharing!

Gotta love the old fat German 'accountant types' with the 'Hells Angel' style leather waistcoats. Never fails to amuse me.
Oh and rest in peace to all the old fat German accountants with Hells angel style leather waistcoats who failed to make the corner.

Right ho, Sherlock, I'll play Watson. I can see evidence of corpulence, but HTF did you deduce accountancy?

- more than 50% of motorcycle accidents are caused by cars
- motorcycling was at least for me never a question of body weight or shape
- instead of that it was (partly) a question of freedom and respect, regardless the profession and nationality
Even if I agree your diagnosis: Do you think you really understood the point of motorcycling or the meaning of this ride?

That is a neat idea for a ride and the pics were great. Thanks for posting them! I've been on lots of motorcycle forums, but one of the things I like about this one is that it has quite a few non-US members and we get to see photos of other places. I guess the US riders came later for this bike though. Now I'm just rambling. LOL.

Thank you Sue. In fact, among all the things I like about this forum is, that here are many member (US and non-US) sharing their experiences and show pic of their bikes and rides. This is reason why I started to take picture too and from now on I will include geo-tags, just to be sure, that anybody can find the places if interessted (or send me a PM and give me the chance to accompany...LOL)
