The 37th Annual ABATE of Washington Spring Opener is now in the history books. With great weather almost all weekend, it was a blast to remember. Even dealing with a couple of bikes that were having issues, all in all it was a good time. North Kitsap Chapter did an outstanding job with the bike show. Even though I won 1st place in the Rat Bike class, I'm not at all biased. Two of our local ABATE chapter members also cam in 2nd place in each of their classes.
Tacoma Chapter hosted the bike games, which were both fun and exciting. The brought in several different games this year. All of them were a kick to watch. Even the slow races were exciting, as Coski won showing some true skill keeping that old Shovel from moving even after the competition had already lost out..
The music was as good as usual. With Hells Belles rocking the bowl Saturday night. The bottom of the bowl was filled with dancers, as the sides we filled with spectators enjoying the show. After they finished rocking out, the raffles took place. Someone named Jean in Vancouver won the 2015 Street Glide Special, and the two Ruger .45's went to another member of Elk Country who only bought one ticket.
It was a good time for sure. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
