El Dookey loves to ride.
Went to the drag races at US 131 Motor Sports park (between Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo just off US 131 - hey maybe that is where the name came from).
Left work and headed to the drags via the long scenic route. A free pass is one of the benies of working for the sports page of some local papers.
Wound my way out around a couple of lakes and cut across to the dragstrip. (had to ride the last 4 miles on the slab....)
It was a nice night, but it got chilly quick. Mid-40's and you could see your breath. That must be why I only saw two other bikes ridden to the races. Not a Harley in the lot.
I was there covering a local driver Dave "Wild Man" Hedges and his top alcohol dragster.
Here is a pic of Wild Man behind the wheel:
