Laughlin River Run 2013

Kenny and Thelma.  This picture was taken 2 years ago in Wyoming.  I rode with them down to the Colorado River today, visited opening day at the Laughlin River Run.

Nothing runs like a Deere!

Thanks to a couple of VROC guys, I think I can wear colors again :-)

The strip is only a couple miles long, and every parking lot will be jammed by the weekend.  Still pretty slow right now, but thousands more rolling in

Montana Cowboy left his boots out to air out.  He was no where around.

Little "Tiger Legs"

I think this is a cigar store...Wooden indian

Thelma's ticket from the Tiger Girl won her a nice little Motorcycle Tiger.

Advertising Sun Tans :-).  Actually, I used a lot of restraint on the "skin" pictures.  I may want to come back.

Helmets with horns attached

Would give you strong neck muscles if you wore this on the bike much.  Or anywhere for that matter.

A pretty BROWN dress. Something Karen would like.

Not all chrome and leather.  Kenny and Thelma checking out some of the lovely ladies clothing.

There are several food vendors, but not an over abundance.  Probably because all the casinos have several eating places.

The first time I saw J&M Corporation at a rally, it was just John and nd Mellisa, they rode in on an old Yamaha Venture, with thier "new communitation products".  They have come a long way!  But, only because they have the best products on the market, provide great customer service, and always are making improvenment and new cool things.

Was surprised to see several car related vendors here.

I missed seeing Mike, he was out schmoozing customers :-)  I think I may return tomorrow and talk to him about  seat for the little Harley. The stock seat is a killer.

Wrong Turn and KT wold have been all over this vendor!

Katie Clothes!  She wears thing like this, and wears them well!

Lots of big names here this week.  Every Casino has good entertainment.  And, we saw several stages set up within the vending areas for live music.

White Out!  Or, Casper the friendly bike.  I kind of like it.

A few rules. There was a big sign on the highway coming into town that said "NO COLORS"  After the shootings of a few years ago, they have stepped up law enforcement.  Lots of Police in town.  We saw a squad of about 5 little XT225 Yamahas with full police gear on them.

Travis Tritt and a Creedence Clearwater "sound alike" group is at the Edgewater.

Speaking of Law Enforcement..............

Some of Nevada's best

For only $19,000 this little beauty could be yours!

Huge front wheels and long, low rear ends is the custom look of the year. We saw a lot of bikes similare to this one.

Nice Apes.  I didn't take a lot of bike pictures.  They sort of boggle your mind

This post started with Kenny and Thelma, so it's a good way to end it.  Sure glad we got acquainted with these good people (Woudn't want to be their enemy) :-)  I'll be taking more pictures tomorrow.
