HAPPY LABOR DAY!

 

 

We were the lone swap-meeters until a couple of our friends showed up later on. Hahaha.

 

This guy, Jeff, is out at the races each year with this old Velocette. He wants everyone to ride it, I can't imagine being so calm about a ton of kids riding my prized possession but he's the raddest dude.

This weekend has been a blast. The vintage motorcycle races out at Miller Motorsports Park has always been our favorite summer tradition since we met and each year, it seems to get better and better. This year we ended up just sleeping in our van out there, rather than either missing out on half of the races or going back and forth from Salt Lake. We ended up spending most of the weekend with the rad guys from Salt City Builds, who we had only met a couple of times before this weekend. It was awesome getting to know them and watch them put together a kick ass bike show. Hopefully more people will participate in the swap meet in the future, we need more events like that around here.

Sunday morning everyone got a chance to donate some money to a local cancer charity and in turn, ride their bikes on the track. Greg was so happy, to say the least. He and one other guy were the only kids with choppers, amongst a lot of race bikes! The announcer thought it was pretty funny. Greg wanted me to ride on the back with him, but they wouldn't let me because I forgot closed-toed shoes. :-( Maybe next year.

Happy Labor Day! Don't forget to retire your white wardrobe. Black looks better anyway, FYI.
