We leave and decide to hit Milwaukee Harley Davidson on the way to Miller Park for the HOG 25th celebrations. On the way we see both the Pilgram Road and Capitol Drive facilities that we will want to stop at later.
There is a massive party at the Milwaukee HD and they are set up pretty good for what they have going on. Lots of vendor tents and sharing a parking lot with a strip club, they have also set up a couple of entertainment venues. Traffic and parking is crazy. We don't partipate in too much of craziness but have a look around, we see the "fighters" getting ready for the midget wrestling bouts, the Bikini bike wash, etc. Next to the strip club was the set up for Strip Club Choppers. We stop by and talk to the guys, I had asked when then were going to be in Digby, which was supposed to be this weekend, for the Wharf Rat Rally, but they couldn't get their paperwork and visas cleared in time so came here instead. It was actually an ideal venue for them.
Off to the Headquarters facility on Juneau Rd. Its an older but quite large facility. Then off to Miller Park for the party. We hung out for several hours, talked to lots of folks, had a lot of fun. Several other Eagles were there but we never saw any of them. We watched all the acts that performed in the Stunt Zone, they were very impressive, some we've seen before. We saw a couple of bands including Billy Bob Thorton and his band, Sugarland played, a couple of others and closing the night was Kid Rock. We watched a bit of that, it was actually quite a good show but it was jam packed. Throughout the day there were other Harley and HOG activies and speakers, including Willie G and we watched comedian Lewis Black for most of his act.
Anybody see a black harley????
Getting out of there and back to the campsite was actually surprisingly easy.
