Visiting Milwaukee Saturday was a bit of a blast as millions and trillions and zillions of cycles, Harley-Davidson motorcycles and others, were in town for the 105th Anniversary of the Harley. Hundreds of Harleys lined up for a parade. Though most parades have floats and marching bands, this parade only featured motorcycles and lots of them, roaring through town. Really roaring. For the faint of heart, factory tours of Harley-Davidson are available anytime and include the history of the Harley and a place to sit and get a bite to eat, inside and air conditioned. All Milwaukee city ordinances regulating noise were off for the weekend, so motorcycles blasted through the streets, waking up patrons living along the lake, whether at street level or on the 21st floor. Nothing like bikers and sleep deprived city folk, mixing at the local watering shed -- hopefully most bikers attended the Bruce Springsteen concert Saturday night, leaving a few silent hours for apartment dwellers could catch some zzzzz's. This too shall pass. Sleeping tonight should be wonderful!Photo attribution: Harley Davidson

You should rename this post... "Motorcycle Mama" or something of that nature.
Interestingly, mamas and papas of all ages were at the event, some on two-wheelers and some on three wheeled Harleys. Thanks for your comment.
