Two Wheel Tuesday, Milwaukee Style

Guest
Yesterday was pretty stressful for me at work, until about halfway through the day when I realized that it was Tuesday. Woohoo! I get to ride to MilwaukeeÔÇÖs own Two Wheel Tuesday and hang out with other riders to look at and talk about bikes! ItÔÇÖs held at 6pm every Tuesday at the CulverÔÇÖs on 124th in between Capitol and Burleigh and is organized and run by the MOA ForumÔÇÖs own gsmetal.

I love to watch everyone ride in. This ÔÇÖ52 Vincent showed up pretty early.

This gathering is cool because there are so many different kinds of bikes. I especially like the old ones, but some of the choppers are incredibly creative.

There are always lots of sportbikes. I liked this red ÔÇÖ98 Kawasaki with its blue rims.

I thought that this Ducati was totally hot. Notice the Massachusetts plate and the seat that they did those miles on!

There were some Beemers there, too...

Frank is always at 2WT and is always on a different bike. This week it was a /something-or-other that he just picked up and is in the process of restoring.

Cool pics. I sure wish that there was something like that in my neck of the woods. I really really like this Ducati. I got to take a 998 on a test ride a couple of months ago and just loved it.
 
Thanks for the pics. Pretty Cool. I wonder how many other places do 2WT. I know that South Bend has Damon's but not sure of anyplace else.

Then again in Athens, GA - Vortex Thursday night is really cooooooooooooooooooool :rocker
 
wow

"Ever hear of a Morini???"
Sure, he plays third base for the Brewers, don't he?

Great report BG - made me smile this morning and I needed one. We have Bike Church at a coffee shop on Sunday morning that gets a variety of bikes. A radio station has free blues concerts in downtown Grand Rapids on Thursdays during the summer, but it is mostly a Harley thing.
 
1952 Vincent Black Lightning- I have 2 versions of the song. One by Greg Brown and the other by Richard Thompson.. Both great tunes
 
1952 Vincent Black Lightning

The Del McCoury Band also did a bluegrass version and won a Grammy with it a year or two ago. I like bluegrass, but think the RT and GB versions are better. Seeing Mr. Thompson perform it live is a transcendant experience.

Two Wheel Tuesday is a great destination and outing for the middle of the week. Fun picture of Pineapple.... :)

BG -- thanks for sharing the cool pix.
 
they were called moto morini the 350 2 cyl. was sold here in the late 70's early 80's I think,maybe not, heck I can't remember last week
