 Bikes and BBQ


This Saturday was the 6th Annual Seminole County (Oklahoma) Fallen Heroes Memorial Ride. This local tradition draws bikes from several counties (and sometimes states). Every year there is something different to look forward too--this year it was a BBQ cook-off at the end of the ride.

The chance of rain seemed to have scared away many would-be riders--no doubt bad memories from the first year, when close to 300 bikers nearly drowned in an unexpected downpour. Rain or no rain, there were plenty of familiar faces, many of whom have ridden or worked behind the scenes since the very first event.

The faces might be familiar, but some of these bikes were "never-before-seen-footage". Check out the Can-Am Spyder!


We aren't sure whether or not we would ride one, but it was definitely an attention-grabber. Below are more bikes and one of the BBQ contestants.




This Victory is also a fresh face in the crowd.

However, here is one that is as familiar as any old friend. See where it was featured as one of our "Bikes of the Day" photos last year.
