EZ rider bike show in Ohio

just got back from the EZ rider bike show in columbus. got there when the door opened at 10am by noon you could not move in the place. There were so many "custom bike builders out there" saw alot of big names wondering around from the TV shows out now. It was nice to see fellas that have been around for years getting their "props" as well as the new fellas too. It took alot to stand out in the crowd though "bikewise or otherwise". After about and hour my head was swirling from all the flash bulbs. All in all it was "ok" just those events are becoming/became so "commercialized ,over priced parking, 20 plus dollars a ticket-family fun events instead of people wanting to look at the bikes. Looked like a HD fashion show!! Looking forward to trips and small local events again this year. Kinda funny though I went to IX center in Cleveland again this year. The HDs are really pushing some lighter colors again this year(IMHO). My buddy said it was to get the lady crowd ,whatever but it was funny to hear people say/think, "well my feet touch the ground on this one"..and instantly they can ride it? .I hope they take some classes like my buddy did or before you know it they will have all kinds of crazy laws because of all the novices that are out now. That may be good though for for other issues though such as roads and more awareness over all . Good to see it growing and not shrinking. Heard one Hd Rep tell this young lady well you can get ya a boot with about an inch heel and you will be ok!!! oh well later everyone..
