Six RBENTers met at the Robinwood Baptist Church in Seagoville and headed out for the Lancaster Airport a little after 8:00 AM this morning to attend the Commenorative Air Force air show. On a Kenny J. organized ride we know we are going to experience dog attacks. On the way to the airport most of the dogs were behind fences. The few loose dogs that gave chase were easily dispached by our air horns. Kind of disappointing, as I was looking forward to the challenge of trying to outrun the dogs.
Kenny's famous "Valley of the Dogs" did not live up to its name. As we were nearing the airport, we were treated to a P-51 Mustang fly-over, and high-speed pass and landing at the airport (A treat for me at least). We parked our bikes along a fence, near the classic auto display. Noticed several people looking at our bike display. A number of people questioned us about our bikes and some took pictures. When we first arrived, we heard music to our ears: "The homemade ice cream stand is open". Eating ice cream was our first order of business. Sure was good.
We spend a couple of hours looking at the classic autos and static aircraft on display, aircraft fly-bys, and then packed it up and headed for Seagoville. On the way back it looked like we were going to be attacked by a pack of vicious-sounding Chihuahuas, but they didn't make it up onto the road. Must have worn themselves out running all that way on their little short legs.
Thirty-three total miles. Thanks, Kenny, for organizing another enjoyable ride.
