Old Bike Ride 14 Large parking lot behind the old Foss Drugstore , one block west of Washington Ave on 13th Street 5 / 15 / 2016 9:30 Norton Colorado and Bob Ohman Welcome to Old Bike Ride Fourteen ! This annual event is a venture between Norton Colorado and Bob Ohman . The purpose of the Old Bike Ride is to encourage people to bring out their old motorcycles and ride them . American , British , Italian , German , Russian , Chinese , motorcycle , scooter , sidecar , concourse original or hideous mongrel , any engine capacity , we do not care as long as it ’ s old enough . The approximately 110-mile route takes us over some of the finest motorcycling roads of the Front Range . The Old Bike Ride is open to anyone riding a motorized vehicle with less than four wheels made in 1980 or earlier . We also honor people who refuse to quit riding just because they got old , so a rider over the age of 75 can ride whatever they want to , dammit . Except for this Extremely Important Exception : We are trying to encourage more riders of the female persuasion to get involved in vintage motorcycling . Therefore , for OBR13 and until further notice , women of any age are welcome to participate while riding ( not as a passenger ) a motorcycle or scooter of any age . Ladies , here ’ s your chance to ride with a choice collection of the crustiest old motorcyclists you could ever imagine ! This is not a race . Everyone rides at their own pace and , to quote the old song , “” never is heard , a discouraging word ”” about the mechanical preparation of one ’ s machine or one ’ s rate of forward progress , cornering abilities , or navigational skills ( no one could be worse than Jerry
Pokorny ). We ’ d really , truly like you to join us . As in recent runnings of the Old Bike Ride , the special decals commemorating this event will not be issued until the lunch stop . Bob Ohman http :// www . nortoncolorado . org / obr / OBR14 . html reohman @ att . net 303-570-9333
