A few Memorial Day bikers in Washington DC

Nice pictures

By the way the two African Americans, I met them in a Cracker Barrel in Myrtle Beach as they were traveling to DC

They were both very kind and good people that I had the pleasure of talking with for a little while.

I used to participate in Rolling Thunder and you captured it beautifully.

Thank you very much Mke. This is always a very enjoyable event with some people that in general are really friendly and nice. I only had a little trouble 2 years ago when I was going to shoot a beautiful lady taking sun on a big bike, and suddenly found myself surrounded with a dozen of huge and unfriendly folks with beard and leathers who didn't look very appreciative of my artistic interests on that lady! ;-)  LOL

Well, Louis, I ride a BMW so I understand the reaction some may have.  They usually didn't give me too much grief for not riding a Harley because I had my unit (1st Infantry Division) patch on one of my saddlebags.  They tend to cut Vietnam vets a little slack.  Hopefully, those guys didn't give you too difficult a time.

Hahahaha... I very fast realized that my black belts in Judo and Jiu Jitsu, and my brown belt in Aikido, could not do a thing for me. I rather needed a machine gun!... LOL

 

But I was rescued by my French accent that provoked a smile on the Lady's lips when I explained that I was shooting for European magazines and they enjoy photos of pretty ladies! ;)
