     *** Pics from last Thursday are now up..

     *** Another beautiful night last Thursday.  The temp was just right...the crowd was nice.  Couldn't beat it if you tried...unless the beer was free!

     *** I was talking to someone down there and it hit me.....A lot of places have 1, maybe 2 Bike Nights a year where a couple hundred riders show up.  Here in Clarksburg, we do this every Thursday the weather allows it.  Hell, if it rains one week, we just wait until next week.  We are pretty lucky.  This is a big reason I try to support Ritzy Bike Night as much as I can - because I think it's really worth it!  Enjoy the pics.

     *** Pics from last Thursday are now up...plus, there's a bit more info on the UPCOMING EVENTS.

     *** Another nice night last Thursday.  The cooler weather earlier must have kept a bunch of riders away, but by the time Bike Night rolled around, it was as nice as could be.  Jim Bunch and his band rocked us 'til everyone left (and yes Jim, there was band called "The New Riders of the Purple Sage").

     May 7, 2012:

     *** Pics from last Thursday are now up.  Be sure to check out the latest version of a rider's on-board sound system.

     *** I put up a scan for the "RIDE WITH HONOR" Bike Run in September.  Check under the UPCOMING EVENTS button.

     *** Last Thursday was "next-to-perfect" weather for our weekly Bike Night.  Besides a bunch of cars blocking a lot of spaces for riders, there was a nice crowd.  Hint, hint:  If you have to drive a car down, please park near the back of the lot.  We all thank you.

     April 29, 2012:

     *** I've put up a scan of the flyer for the HOGS FOR DOGS XI Dice Run.  Check under the UPCOMING EVENTS button.

     April 27, 2012:

     *** In the April 2012 section of the Ritzy Pics, I had them listed as March.  This has been fixed - thanks Mark.

     *** RITZY LUNCH HOGS FOR DOGS - June 7th from 5:30 to 8:00 - A band and free hot dogs...plus prizes from B&B Harley.  I hope all of you get a chance to stop down and support the concession stand put up by the Harrison County Humane Society.

     *** No Bike Night last night.  Rain and cold weather just doesn't bring people out.  Let's hope for better weather next week.

     April 21, 2012:

     *** Finally, a nice night at Bike Night!  I grabbed a bunch of photos from the multitude.  I hope yours was one.

     *** Remember, if you'd like to print out your (or any other) pic from here, e-mail me and tell me it's number and I'll get a high resolution shot off to you.  It will print out a lot nicer, plus it won't have the date, etc. on it....no charge!

     *** It makes me feel good seeing the guys checking out my old Triumph.  It think it brings back some memories for a lot of them.  Sad to say, I have some noise from the innards I will be checking out.  I'm hoping it's just a valve spring or something else fairly simple - hope, hope!

     I've changed the link below to my CELL PHONE PAGE.  It should work a bit better now.

     Monday, April 2, 2012:

     *** The picture listings for Oct. '03 and March '04 have been corrected and should show up okay.  If not, let me know.

     *** For those of you who are following my attempt at creating a cell phone version of this site, I have uploaded an update to this version.  The address is as follows.  Once there, create a BOOKMARK:     LINK

     The functioning buttons as of this date are:   RITZY, FATBOYS, UPCOMING, BLOG and HELP.

NOTE:  Do not use the onscreen BACK button.  Instead use the one on your phone!



     In case you guys didn't know it...The Twisted Spoke picked up a DYNO.  Now you can get your bikes setup to run top-notch.
     Stop by their website - THE TWISTED SPOKE - for the latest news.  NOTE:  This is Jim's new link address.  Once there, make a new bookmark.  I did the site for Jim.  If you like it, let him know you stopped by.

     I was just wondering...Have you ever checked out the "MISC. BIKE SITES" link on the left?  I've collected a BUNCH of links to bike sites all over the world. You could spend more than a couple of hours checking them out.  Surely you can find a site you'd like to visit.  There's too many to check to see if the links are still operating.  You will have to do that yourself.

     If you are having trouble e-mailing me from this site, just type my address in or COPY/PASTE the address below into your own e-mail form.  I gave up on the other one.  (You might want to add "KEN'S PICS" as the Subject.).  Also, replace the  (at) with the "@" symbol.

holbs (at) yahoo.com

     Remember, if any of you would like a pic taken of you and your bike, just ask me and I'll be glad to oblige you.

     Visitors here are permitted to "grab" any of my photos for PERSONAL, NON-PROFIT USE ONLY.  If you'd like a larger, digital copy to print-out, just e-mail me at (see above) and tell me the photo's subject area, year, month and i.d. number and I'll get a high resolution and printer friendly graphic back to you at no charge.

Thunder Roads Magazine is now online.  You can visit it here:
  THUNDERROADS MAGAZINE

Ritzy Lunch has its own site now.  Stop by for a visit:
  RITZYLUNCHWV.COM.

  NOTE: These links will, most likely, take you off of this site.
