Weather finally cooperates for first event.

Tuesday, April 28th was the first event of the season for Grandview EURO Bike Night and it did not start off as one would have hoped. The weather was dreary for most of the day putting the season opener in jeopardy. However, by 6:00 pm, any rain in the area had subsided and those that took the chance by coming out were rewarded with a nice evening of fellowship with like minded bike enthusiasts.

The crowd certainly suffered from the less than ideal conditions with an estimated 35 bikes in attendance. All things considered I was very pleased with the turnout and wanted to extend my appreciation to those that did make it out for the first event.

The raffle proved again to be a popular event as our sponsors came through with some great prizes to give away. I would like to thank our sponsors who donated prizes for the raffle; Spagio, Krema Nut Company, Iron Pony and Cowtown Pizza. Be sure to enter next time for a chance to win more great prizes. As it has been since the beginning, the raffle is free. Thanks to those who threw some cash in the donation jar. All monies that we collect go towards expenses such as website hosting, printing costs, advertising and other miscellaneous expenses that Steve and I have incurred.

Ticket sales for the Stella 150 raffle have begun. Be sure to get yours at the next bike night. Tickets are $10 and a maximum of 350 tickets will be sold for a chance to win a beautiful, brand new $3600 scooter.

Be sure to join us for the next bike night on 5-12-09. Remember, it’s twice a month this year.
