Bikes, Blues and Gi-raffes... | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

M. Mitchell MarmelOGR Forum Member DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER

Last weekend (29 Sep-01 Oct), the Razorback Traction Company helped entertain the masses traveling to/from the parking lot to the main venue via the Arkansas and Missouri RR..,

BBB is a great place to see thousands of motorcycles:

GEDC3828

GEDC3829

GEDC3831

And the occasional Martian landing craft:

GEDC3821

Naturally, when motorcycles are involved, one must have bike bunnies. And gi-raffes sporting goggles and scarves... ;-)

...but who knew Fortescue was going to go hentai on us?

GEDC3814

GEDC3822

GEDC3823

GEDC3826

With both dinosaurs and gi-raffes in abundance, I dubbed the layout "Gi-raffic Park"...

GEDC3824

GEDC3827

And fun was had by all involved!

Yes, but this was a motorcycle show. devil

Ahhhh, yes! Disturbing, isn't it? devil

I will note there were zero complaints from the parents. One grandmotherly sort suggested we have a gi-raffe car with a topless gal sticking her top half out of the car...

Nice looking bikes but appear to be mostly Harold Donaldson's or whatever those chrome plated monsters are called. Any Vincent's?

You mean the Heffalump-Dumpaloons? Yeah, BBB is rather heavy on those. I did see the occasional rarity such as Indians, Vincents , Beezers, Triumphs and ones leaving a distinct aroma of burning rice... ;-)

Always wanted a Vincent but could never afford one. Had a Norton and an Ariel Square Four. When i hit PowerBall i'm going to buy an Ariel back again, a Black Lightening, and a Brough Superior SS100
