Plant City Biker Fest 5/7/17

Perfect Saturday weather, sunny skies, low humidity, cool air.... sooooo....fuck it, let's ride! While browsing the net I stumbled upon a small bikefest in Plant City about 2 1/2 hrs away from the compound. So we packed up the bike and headed west.

 I had forgotten that Laura's daughter Kayla and her BF Kyle live near the area.

A quick phone call, and they showed up to the "bike" fest ...... on their "10-speeds"....

Much to our surprise, we had arrived way too early, ...holy fuck! who knew? As it turned out the "fest" didn't actualy start till 5pm. To kill time we headed over to the Crab Shack, had some clam strips and refreshments, met up with the siblings and soon the bikes started rollin in and the days events began.

Marsha from the Biker Paparazzi came around and took our photo,  you can see more photos of the event at bikerpaparazzi.com.

The band played, we browsed the very few vendors, and enjoyed plenty of refreshments...

AND  then it was time for..............

.......

THE CONTEST........
.......
.......

WHO WILL WEAR A DRESS, DANCE AROUND AND GET $25 WORTH OF DRINKS?

??

????

Kyle wasted no time
.........

In a flash he transformed himself into something out of a 60's movie,
like a colorful hallucination you'd see on a bad LSD trip.
The biker crowd loved it, the only other contestant was a blonde woman who tried,
 but she had no chance up against a fierce competitor like Kyle.

Let me show you how it's done blondie.....

And soon the fat lady sang....."AND THE WINNER IS........."

Thats right, Kyle is a huge hit among the biker community and the roar of the crowd made it perfectly clear who the winner would be on this day.

With the extra $25 in hand, we all headed over to Big Dogs Bar for more cocktails and later made our

way to the Silver Dollar Saloon.

Kayla .... trying out the biker lifestyle...

It was a perfect weather day, a fun day was had by all, we got a good ride in, and got to hang out with the siblings. Chilly ride home.
The Plant City Bike Fest, now in its 15th year, is held every 3 months, so we may be goin back soon.
