Ok, so we got riding season coming up in roughly 2 months, and I am sure everyone is ready to ride. But right now I am trying to get a feel on where everyone lives and who's down to ride. Every Tuesday we will be going to Hooters for bike night in Lansing and weekend rides to wherever.
So if people want, lets make a call to all MI riders and start setting up weekend rides and get togethers. As far as introductions, Ill start if off; names Paul, from Lansing, MI.
Here is a good documentary about the rise and fall of Detroit. Worth the hour watch. I spent the first 14 years of my life living around Detroit, before I moved away to the country. Even with all the bad rap Detroit gets form the media, I do love this city, and all it has to offer.
For the most part the video was awesome, except for the random raps in between hahahaha. The divide of race from 8 mile is so true, I never thought about how the riot basically started the movement out of Detroit. If you play video games try Deus ex:human revolution its based in Detroit its weird seeing the Renaissance center in a game
My dad was 8 or 9 years old when the riots occurred, and they were living in East Detroit. My Grandpa gave my dad and my uncle a fully loaded 12 gauge and a box of shells, put one in the front and one on the rear, and told them to protect their mother and sister. Anyone came within 10 feet of the front porch that they didn't know, were to get a lead present. Luckily that didn't happen. They said the sky was bright as day with all of the fires burning across town.
A year or two later they moved to a farm in Capac.
I just ordered 2 -canyon dancer II in prep for the trip to Indy, and I need a favor from you guys.
If anyone is going into a Harbor Freight anytime soon could you check out the wheel chocks they have for $40 bucks and report back if they have them in stock. I'm looking to get 2 for the trailer and these are in store price only. Closest store for me is Saginaw.
I'm planning a trip to Ypsi the weekend of Aug 3rd so no rush. just would like to know which store to beeline for.
SAGINAW...I might stop there tonight ill check if i go...I have two CUOPINS for 20% off any regular priced items so that would knock it down to 33.90 out the door..Ill check to see if there in stock when i go....BRING EXTRA AMMO thier shooting like crazy down there the last couple of weeks...
Thanks Mike and Chad for the help. Didn't wanna spend all day going from store to store. As far as the coupons, Mike. I'll have to look in my latest Sportrider mag. Good call.
@ Chad... If you have time this weekend shoot me a text and I'll shoot down for a meetup. (Finally!!!). I'm only a half hour North of Houghton lake.
