Found Marble Run Book

We did located a Marble run book at our anniversary poker run and party. If the person who lost it can make it to Geo's Wings some week so my wife can identify her we will make sure you get it back.

Motorcycle Stuff This Week and Weekend

Well we made it this week to the second Two Wheel Tuesday at No-Jacks in Smithton, IL. I did get drenched the week before trying to get here but this week the weather was awesome. So me and some of the friends of The Biking Life magazine met and rode out here together all sporting our The Biking Life gear and most are pictured here. They probably had close to 40 bikes all told and the burgers and fries for $1.50 was a big hit as were the fabulous drink specials. If you are looking for something fun to do early week then join us this coming Tuesday at No-Jacks on Highway 159 in Smithton, IL.

Tonight is of course Bike Night at Geo's wings on West Main St in Belleville. This week they are going to have a dj on site to entertain the crowd and to change things up some. Also rumor has it they may give away a pair of tickets to Saturday nights Rams game to a lucky person.

Phony Rooster

If you commit to advertising an event and then after two years, your employees cover your debt well you might be a phony rooster.

Oh and of course as stated before any resemblance of Phony Rooster to any person real or fictional, alive or dead is strictly coincidental.

Thanks To All Who Helped Us Celebrate Our 5th Anniversary

Like John said in an earlier post, our anniversary party was a huge success and I thank all who attended and also Johnny, Roger and Hammer collectively known as Floodline and also their opening act Ace in the Sleeve. I would like to take a minute to express my gratitude to a few groups first I thank the Vietnam Vets M/C Missouri and Illinois Chapters for showing their support, the Road Raptors Riding Club from Fairview Heights, IL, a stong contingent from the Missorui March of Dimes, representatives of the Hartbauer/McBride Foundation and there is another group I am missing.

I recognize those groups in particular because we have helped them with promoting events in the past and they get it. They know that if you want an organization to support you you should support them. However it is a little disheartening to see a lack of participation by groups that have no problem asking for support for their causes but don't support other's causes. These groups missed out on a most excellent party and also showed their true colors.

Two Wheel Tuesdays

Hello we are proud to be involved with No-Jacks in Smithton, IL Two Wheel Tuesday Bike Night. The first one is this coming Tuesday August 5th. I would like to see a lot of The Biking Life supporters at this event. So towards that goal the first ten people that meet me at Geo's Wings and More on West Main St. between 6:30 and 7 PM I will give t-shirts to and anyone else that shows up at No-Jacks wearing The Biking Life gear I will buy your first beer. No-Jacks is located on IL 159 on the north side of Smithton, IL. I hope to see you here and thanks for your support.

A Special Thanks to the Ladies at Show-Me's

The 5th Anniversary Biking Life Magazine celebration at Show-Me's in Fairview Heights was a huge success and a great time was had by all that attended. In addition to the free delicious wings, the young ladies at Show-Me's did a tremendous job keeping the drinks and other foods flowing. The place was packed both inside and outside with two excellent bands keeping the crowd entertained on the patio.

Where in the World are Dave and Kelly Perry

Has anyone seen these two road warriors? It has been a while since I saw them at anything and was just wondering.
