Crimestoppers Annual Fun Run Saturday 5-17-08 Pt. 1

On Saturday, 5-17-08, Crimestoppers of Wichita Falls Texas had its Annual Fun Run. Sign in and departure point was at Eddie Hills Fun Cycles, downtown Wichita Falls with first bike out at 0900 hrs. The run was 92 miles. Pictured above, just prior to leaving my house at 0730 hrs are: Amy (my youngest daughter) & her fiancee' Dustin and Amanda (my oldest daughter) who was riding with me. My wife Janice had to work, so she missed this ride. REMEMBER: if you want to see it bigger, click on the picture.


Janice did venture out of the house all bleary eyed & bushy tailed to take this pic of Amy, Dustin, Amanda & me. She then shuffled back into the house and went back to sleep.


We left my house & went and picked up my partner from along time ago, Rodney..Here we are at Rodney's house. Rodney's wife Vicki was meeting her boss, Cindy, who was riding also, and they would meet us at Eddie Hills. After this pic was taken, we headed out. Pictured are me, Rod & Dustin.


Pictured are the bikes on N. Scott in the vicinity of Eddie Hills.

Pic of some of the bikes in front of Eddie Hills. Registration & package pick up as well as breakfast was just inside the doors.




Bikes on the side of Eddie Hills. I talked to Donna from Crimestoppers, when the ride was complete, and a fast headcount showed they had 173 folks registered. That was the fast headcount. The final number was thought to be more.



A picture of Amy with local radio personality, Brad Austin. She was pretty tickled to finally meet him. She listens to him everyday.



Rodney's wife & her boss catch up with us. Here is Cindy, Rodney & Vicki. Rod & I have been friends since 1977.


Pictured prior to heading out are: Debbie, Carl, Sissy & Ken. Ken is another Vietnam Vet (helicopter pilot) & is the city Doc..Good guy, I might add.


This is Kyle & Amy. Kyle is another friend & former co-worker. Amy is his wife & has her own Harley which will be seen shortly


Raymond & Marilyn. Been friends with them for years & they are both retired now & ride all over the country..

This is Trish & Van.. Van is another friend & former co-worker and Trish, his wife, is a riot..Check out her helmet with the pink ponytail's attached. I saw her in that while we were riding down the road & I almost lost control of my bike I was laughing so hard

Here is Trish modeling the aforementioned helmet at Stop 1, the Red River Harley Davidson Dealership
