26th Annual Chicken Run...
Did a large group ride with the local Harley Owners Group yesterday. There were about 130 bikes. I counted five trikes including ours. The Chicken Run has been an annual spring ride out of the Spokane/Coeur d'Alene area for as long as I can remember, and proceeds from the ride will go to benefit the Wounded Warrior Project. This was a well organized large group ride, and sponsored by the local Harley dealership.
Starting off from the Lone Wolf Harley dealership in Spokane Valley, WA, we broke up into groups of about 25 bikes, and rode Northeast to Rathdrum, Idaho. Up Highway 41 to Usk, WA and onto the Flowery Trail Road to Chewelah, WA where they had a live band set up and a catered BBQ lunch in the city park.
After lunch, everyone was on their own to find their way home again. We rode straight down Highway 395 to the north side of Spokane, and then took some side roads around the city and back home to north Idaho.
All-in-all, it was a beautiful, bright sunny day, and a great ride...
