Just posting a few quick pix tonight from Saturday’s Spring Bling. Will post more Monday or Tuesday, because I’m going to be on the road all day Sunday.<\/p>\n

Spring Bling wouldn’t be complete without representation from the Chic Riders. Here’s the gals in a group photo. From left to right, it’s Lori, Karen, Gina, Kristina me (in the back!) Cassie, Julie and Annette. In the second photo it’s Kristina, Starlene, Lori, and Gina.<\/p>\n

We had great representation, not just of Chic Riders but women in general at the Spring Bling. <\/p>\n

Here is another shot of some of the Chic Riders.<\/p>\n

And here’s one of a group ride arriving en masse.<\/p>\n

Essentially it was a great, big, honking poser meet to kick off the riding season. Everyone comes, parks, and admires each other’s bikes. It’s kinda insular, cliquish and, despite that, a lot of fun. I couldn’t get more than 40-50 bikes in a single shot — about half a block worth of parked bikes, shoehorned pretty tightly together. But estimated about 300 bikes.<\/p>\n

That’s all for tonight cuz I gotta get up EARLY Sunday to get to Fenwick for around 8. Clare’s Cycle and Sports is holding a Harley demo day and I want to test a Buell Lightning — and if you don’t get an early spot in line there’s no guarantee you’ll get to test the bike you want. When I called they said a Buell was definitely going to be on the truck but they weren’t sure which one. Hope it’s a Lightning. <\/p>\n

Anyway, it’s an hour and a half to Fenwick — it’s right next to St. Catherine’s on the other side of Lake Ontario. That means I have to leave here by 6:30 to get to Fenwick for 8. <\/p>\n

I hear my pillow calling me.<\/p>\n
