Well, the less said about this the better. People actually cheered as this lovely couple rode past.
|
|
This couple, from Oklahoma City, came rather
early, and were part of the vanguard of Harley riders. This photo was taken
early in the week, before most riders had hit town. Still, the reunion rides
had already begun, and all over the country huge numbers of riders were already
on the road, heading towards Milwaukee. |

Showing off their Harly/Route 66 shirts. Old
Route 66 runs through Oklahoma City, and a very savvy dealer has decided to
take advantage of the association of the road, and build his dealer ship there.

|
Seeing the world through a viewfinder.
I have no idea what this couple really looks like. This is probably how
I looked to most people, during the celebration. |
|
|
Smile, and show me your Harley face.
These girls (young ladies, pardon me) were pretty happy to be here.
|
|
|
A little jaded and tired, so that getting
up high, sitting down, and getting an overview of the grounds is probably
a good idea. |
|
|
Pardon me, but are you twins? |
|
|
Classic Harley faces. These two look
as if they would definitely be at home on a bike. |
|
|
Harley enthusiasts come in all sizes.
The shoes sticking straight out are a riot. When this little girl grows
up she will get a pink Harley. |
|
|
Is he giving me the eye, or posing for
a photograph? I may never know. |
|
|
A pair of Brazilians look around below
the Sky Glider. This Mecca of Harley brought people from all over the world.
|
|
|
Large numbers of people decided to rise
above the festivities below. |
|
|
These two look pretty happy, which hardly
sets them apart here. Naturally, a camera is out and ready for use. |
|
|
Honey, you can put the map away; we won't
get lost up here. |
|
|
This couple looks pretty introspective,
considering where they are. |
|
|
Pointing out some of the sights. |
|
|
A vigilant photographer stands (or rather
sits) ready. Everyone had cameras, and I suspect that miles of film were
shot over the weekend. |
|
|
Lets see, film, camera, tickets, keys
--- it must be in here somewhere. |
|
|
Craning their necks to look the place
over, this Harley couple is dressed in a style that would have been familiar
to their parents at their age. |
|
|
Hello up there. Despite the implied invitation,
I did not jump down. |
|
|
Sitting high above the crowd gives this
visitor a good chance to get a photo. |
|
|
A couple shares a peaceful moment at
the lake, right inside of the party grounds. |
|
|
An interestingly attired celebrant also
lounges a bit at the lakefront. The sixties live. |
|
|
This is a collection of veteran bikers,
if ever I saw one. For you Santa spotters out there, you can see him in
this photo. I knew Santa was a Harley rider. I also noted that Mrs. Claus
was not around. |
|
|
These two are also obvious veteran bikers,
who have been on a Harley or two in their lives. Sometimes you can just
tell. |
|
|
I dare you to call this a dress. |
|
|
These two have come a long way, from the
land of the midnight sun to that of the V-Twin. many of these people had their
bikes shipped over with them, so that they could participate in some of the
rides, and other bike events. |
|
|
The Milwaukee Police were more like hosts
and tour guides, than enforcement officers. I saw more happy police officers
talking to more friendly visitors. I have never seen such a cheerful police
force. |
|
|
Pacing themselves. It's going to be a long
night, and we all need our rest. |
|
|
I think this guy has ot backwards, the
bike goes on the bottom, and the rider sits on top. Oh well, to each
his own, I guess. |
|
|
A selection of headgear was to be found.
Harley people are nothing if not conservative in dress. |
|
|
Some guys spend their entire lives trying
to look this cool. |
|
|
*AHEM* Well, the less said about this the better. People actually cheered as this lovely couple rode past. |
|
|
Well, it's time to call it a day. |
