Red Headed Step Child

[craigatcsi]

For our first time, we went to a local restraunt 'Quaker Steak & Lube' for a weekly 'Bike Night'.

 

WOW!!! There were MANY bikes there, much more than I expected. There had to be over 1000 bikes there!.

 

After we ate, we walked around the 'bikes only' parking lot to check out the bikes. I have an 07 Venture, and was surprised that mine was the only Venture there - Unless one showed up after we left. It was probably 75% HDs with the rest being a mix of Crotch Rockets & everything else.

 

It was quite an experience for us and we really enjoyed all of the people watching. My wife ran into a guy that she grew up with and hasn't seen in years.

 

We plan to do it again sometime.

They just dont know what to make of a Venture. Sure does confuse the Harley crowd though...

That's one of the reasons I love my 1st Gen. Lots of people have never seen one. That's why my tag says NOTAWNG. Had too many people complimenting me on my "goldwing".

I don't think of mine as a Red Headed Step Child.

Rather I think of it more as a rarity, a True and Real Red Head. When I make a meet a LOT of people stop and look at her.

Real Red Heads just make men do that.
