This
year the White Stag fun started on Thursday when some of the Pacific NW
posse showed up in Reno. Good fun seeing Dennis Y, Eric V and
Garth T. After some silliness Garth and I were not ready
to call it a night like the other girlz so we proceeded to go to downown
Reno and do a bit of remodeling. Yikes! Too
much fun .....and it set the stage for what would promise to be another
GREAT White Stag Rally.
The next morning my favorite riding buddy Don Simone and I met and we made the long 32.87mile trek out to Ferntucky USA .....where we met up with Brian Roberts ....after some silly stories we eventually got the sidestands up. The
5hour journey to Beatty only took us 9hours ....there were food stops,
whorehouse stops, and a great time shooting guns out near the megatropolis
of Candeleria. These stops could could have been quicker
if.
-------------------- Eventually to Beatty and seeing old and new friends and enemies. Of course booze too -and even a riders' meeting -where there was an interesting rally pack handed out to all. Then
Bar Time ......duh.
That
Dirty Old Man (Don Simone) was up to his no-good ways and convinced myself
and John Langan to head up downtown Beatty with plans to hit "Bikinis"
We hit the Sourdough saloon and 3.14 drinks into the mix Tom A and Jeff F show up to join myslelf, Don S and John L .. Seems
we would have a chaperone this night: "Sherry" .....and some of you
may remember her from a White Stag way back when there was an auction for
the shirt that she was wearing.
Sherry, who was bartending at the Sourdough summoned the van from Bikinis to come pick us up ..........and this was the moment that all-things-wrong became the norm: |

George
Swetland, (IBA #5) was not a part of the White Stag street pussies this
weekend
...instead
he was down in DV riding dirt with a few friends. We spotted
his bike outside of the restaurant:
George
and a couple of his buddies having lunch ....we traded a few quick stories.
It was great to see George.

Probably
the mayor of the megatropolis of Shasone USA:
I
hate the fuzz
Don
was wearing a dew-rag that made him look like a leather-n-tats biker.
So Brian and I made him park over with the Harlies.
Then
up to Badwater....
