Gophers and Cheese

How about one more event from 2019...   Motosota was held at Bauhaus Brew Labs  September 7, 2019.  It's the annual "farewell to summer", hosted by The Moto Collective .

Second Thursday Moto Nite at Bauhaus Brew Labs is organized by The Moto Collective .  It's a huge, eclectic bike night.  This one was special to me as it was the first bike night where I rode my grandfather's 1979 Hondamatic (CM400A). I restored & modified the bike over the winter.  When I got it, it was mostly stock, dirty & corroded, non-running, and was clearly home to multiple mice over the many years it was stored.  To be honest, the bike still needs some work as it's still not running quite right but it was good enough to make it to Bauhaus that day and that was a big win.

I stopped by Motosota at Bauhaus Brew Labs for a bit on Saturday, September 23rd.  The "motorcycle farewell to summer" event was going on, rain or shine, and, unfortunately, there was both.  I was there early while it was still nice and just cloudy - the rain came later.  In spite of the weather, there was a good crowd of bikes & vendors and (of course) tasty beverages from Bauhaus.  I was there with my wife & daughter and was limping around because I injured my knee last week (still have no idea what I did to it) so I couldn't stay too long.  It was still fun.

Second Thursday Moto Nite at Bauhaus Brewlabs , hosted by The Moto Collective , is a massive monthly bike night.  What started back in 2017 as a vintage motorcycle night has expanded to a large and eclectic mix of bikes reminiscent of the crowds that used to gather for First Thursday at Dulono's Pizza (feel free to reminisce with my Dulono's blogposts here ).  Enough typing... here's a ton of photos from the August 10th bike night:
