A sport bikers view of Tally BIke nights
our comments are still screwed up so we just make post out of em.
This was in response to our post on Tallahassee's newest Bike night at the Ale House:
RC,
I agree. I attended last week. I also reported my feedback on www.tallahasseesportbikers.com , as well as my new sportbike blog. I realize it is sponsored by Capital City Harley Davidson, but it seemes even more cruiser oriented than Hooters Bike night in Tallahassee, FL. I thank CCHD for doing it and giving us bikers something to do. The flyer said they would be giving out prizes. However, the prizes were giving out like this: "Show me a Harley shirt,or a HD emblem here's a prize, show me a marqarita here's a prize, show me a Miller lite beer here's a prize. I'm not against cruiser bikers, it's just not my preference. It definitely seems like all the Tallahassee bike nights are cruiser oriented. I don't drink often and definely not when riding or operating a motor vehicle.
I did enjoy the performance of Jimmy Gillis. He does a great job in my opinion. He was performing Friday at the Salty Dawg. I found out he has his own website at jimmygillis.com
Thanks to Millers Ale and CCHD for sponsoring another bike night. I believe a local sportbike rider is trying to get another bike night started. I believe it may be centered more around or towards sportbikes. I generally wave at all bikers, nothing against any of them,please don't take this the wrong way. I'm on the younger side and prefer sportbikes, but wish all the bike nights were not majority geared towards the cruisers. I came to your site to contact you and see if you had heard about Millers bike night,yet. I'm still not getting email notifications from your blog. I know I contacted you a few weeks ago and you had said you were really busy like everyone else due to this crazy economy. I believe Tallahassee sportbike syndicate has pulled the plug on their website.

Alpha Company return home PGR Mission Complete-Valdosta, Ga
From Ga. Ride Captain Harry Trawick
Mission Complete - RETURN FROM AFGHANISTAN OF ALPHA COMPANY, 2ND BATTALION, 121 INFANTRY BRIGADE.
FT STEWART TO VALDOSTA, GA.
We had a great return! The Brigade came home INTACT. EVERYONE COMPLETED TOUR AND RETURNED TODAY!
Mission left Hinesville at 0900 with 20+ bikes led by Raymond Conner, PGR & Blue Knights. Riders joined the mission all along the way building to 60+ by the time they arrived in Valdosta.
Our group waiting in Valdosta was ready with over 30 bikes and several more joined the procession as we road through the city, lined with well wishers waving our flag and holding welcome home signs!
Days like today prove that THE AMERICAN SPIRIT IS ALIVE AND WELL.
Special thanks to our friends from Florida PGR, Mike Donohoe, RC, TZ, Margie and Spirit for bringing a suport vehicle with 50 flags. Every single flag was waving for the troops.
Our Heroes were welcomed, fed and sent home to be with their families, knowing their nation loves and appreciates their sacrifices.
One soldier said it best "We all do this for our own reason, patriatism, to support our family, what ever. We just need to know our country supports us and stands with us."
That's why WE do what WE did today.
GOD BLESS OUR NATION AND OUR TROOPS!
We also want to recognize the Ga State Patrol for their start to finish escort, Lowndes County and Valdosta City Officers for escorting and blocking the route.
