So Much Folding and Tacos.

Day 11: August 11, 2017: SLC

Got up this morning, worked through breakfast while struggling to determine which was more blinding: Opa's legs or his shirt. Once I finished breakfast, I raced to meet up with Sue, Kim, and Lisa. We probably spent an eternity folding shirts for the everyone to snag at the rally's Country Store. Sue came buy and told us that lunch was on her, well, actually on Bob, her husband. Who was I to argue? Kim and I couldn't get out of the building and into her rental fast enough. We stopped at the Red Iguana, which was phenomenal! Had it not been for those mouth-watering tacos, I don't think that any of us would have survived the wild goose chase looking for last minute supplies for the rally. I went to the Volunteer's Dinner with Kim. Opa and some of his friend's wandered off to the food court for Pat's BBQ. They said it was pretty tasty. We probably should have gone to the bbq place, too.

A Quick Photography Session

Image
I met Austin in passing at the Annual National Sidecar Rally in Rising Sun, Indiana. He was taking shots of the other rigs and hacks that were parked along the pavilion. I asked if he had seen the matching sidecars that my grandfather and I ride-he had not. I talked with him about the bike while he took a few shots. I gave him one of my cards, we exchanged instagrams to share pictures and information with, and here we are. So. If you are looking for a great photographer and one that has a passion for things with wheels and engines, this is your guy. You can check out more of his work on his Instagram (notyouravgcowboy) or his Facebook (Whiskey City Photography). Last I checked, he's willing to travel as far as you're willing to pay him to go, but you can occasionally catch him lurking around some motorcycle rallies. Feel free to reach out and Get some incredible shots of you with your bike, as well!

Sidecar Saturdays : Games and Awards

Day 4: Saturday: This is pretty much the last day of the rally, tomorrow morning, everyone will pack up and head home. Today was going to be a long and busy day. Sidecar games. Catered dinner. Door prizes, 50/50 raffle, awards from the sidecar judging, the sidecar games, and the sign-up sheets (longest distance, youngest/oldest, etc). After a quick breakfast, we wandered over to Walmart to buy Opa a fancy crank radio, so that he could listen to his news stations on the radio. We went to the field around the corner from the camp to participate in the sidecar games. Opa said it was too hot for him to stand out and play. Luckily, a wonderful lady named Cathy with a dark green Ural asked to be my partner and vice versa. Game 1: Sidecar passenger had to play cornhole from the sidecar while never stopping and maintaining the line in the grass. Game 2: Sidecar passenger tries to make the basketball go through the hoop while the driver never stops the bike, while driving on the line. Game
