Cycle gear of Huntsville is having a bike night this Friday.  I'll try to stop by.

I need some of their low-cost, fairly-nifty stuff.  Hope I can make it.  But, not likely.  Midnight shift sucks large.

I did make it over to the bike night.  I didn't see anyone I knew.  I had a burger, drank some water, looked around the store and talked to a few strangers.  It wasn't all that exciting.  I did take some pics.

Some Hooters Girls were there.

This bike is not something I would have any desire of owning but it certainly attracted attention.

I liked this old ZX-10.  I guess I'm an old fart but overall I like the styling of old sportbikes more than that of new ones.  This bike is actually practical.  It would be easy to mount luggage and go touring.  The seat looks comfortable even for a passenger.
