Friday 13th
« on: March 21, 2007, 07:19:32 PM »

Not sure how many of you know about Port Dover Ontario Can, but it host a bike rally EVERY Friday 13th, no mater what month it falls on. This year there is one in April and July. When the weather is nice, over 100000 bike overtake this small port community, leaving no way for anyone to enter unless they are on two wheel. Locals have to get a pass from the town to show they live there to be able to get to their homes or work places. It is like a mini Daytona. Bikes line the streets on both side and up the middle. Boats sit in the harbor to spectate some of the eye candy.
I don't live far from this town and would offer to organize a CVO ride to the event if there is intrest..

Let me know if anyone is interested in attending. Here is a web page to read up on if you want to know more about this event.  www.pd13.com

If anyone on this site has been there and would like to comment about their experience, please do.

That definitely sounds like a destination! Although I consider myself a tough biker, living in Michigan's Upper Peninsula and motoring down there for the April party might be a bit "chilly" to say the least. Or, with all this so-called global warming, I could get out my shorts! I too would like to hear from any and all who've been to the PD13.

I shall do my best. Snow has returned for a visit, I hope its a short stay.
Hmmm, kinda odd not to have any snow at Christmas but shows up for Easter. The last PD13 was in October/06...I drove through some snow fluries that day. I had just bought H-D FXRG wear and wanted to test it out. It is an awsome, worthwhile investment. Dry and warm.

I know none of you guys are interested but nudeness is OK in Ontario in public. As it was explained to me as long as it wasn't for proffit or advertising.That makes the warm wearther 13th events a lot more interesting.

Warm PD13's bring on several sightings....not that there is anything wrong with that.  ;D
It is supposed to be about 55 on Friday. I will be going as long as the roads are dry. There is still some salt on the roads from snow fall over the last few days. :(

Anyone else going???

Around here it looks like the town wanted to get rid of their stale salt.All the intersections are loaded with it. Can't bring myself to intentionally take the bike out in it. NEED RAIN

In spite of less than desireable temperatures (32), me an a buddy went.....the rain held off.  I couldn't believe how many people were there considering the weather. The HA members,  that didn't go to jail last week with the big bust in Toronto, had there booths in place selling their LEGAL goods. The Police had them largely outnumbered. I was only there for the afternoon, so I don't know if the nightlife remained calm.
The event was smaller than a summer one, but the downtown main street was packed with people and bikes both sides and up the middle. The only other CVO bikes there were an 07 SERK and a 04 SEEC.(that i seen)...So lets fix that in July!!!
I had some fun with my remote operated Legend Air Suspension. I had my bike parked near the store front of a buddies. My bike was parked at the end of a row next to a handicap parking spot. (this left the side of my bike wide open) I had the bike lowered and sat back about 150ft in front of the store. As people were checking out the bike, I would raise and lower it with my remote. You should have seen the look on their faces. They were pointing and laughing.....and so were we. I can also make the radio fire up if I hold the power lock button on the remote...so I had to do that too. I had left the volume turned up when I shut the bike off, so it fires up to the last song and volume. That made em jump....thanks to Hawg Wired.
I know it sounds silly, but I couldn't resist.
I have a few pics I will send the first of the week from work where I have high speed net.
