European Rider’s Rally 2012

A couple dozen of our Members gathered for an uncharacteristically warm and sunny weekend at the European Rider’s Rally in Burkesville, KY this past weekend.

We each took our own roads there. Many traveled in small groups according to their schedules and desires for backroads or interstates. I met up with Club member Dennis Shelley and his friend Gary Clark at our pre-arranged spot in Shelbyville.

A short hop on I-74 for a short over to Greensburg was (thankfully) the only interstate we’d see the entire weekend!

Dennis took us down some interesting backroads that I’d never experienced before. Look for Old Michigan Road on a map. Paralleling 421 from the north end of the Jefferson Proving Grounds to just south of Napoleon, it’s straight as an arrow, nice surface and very scenic.
