Scheduled 2012 Rides and Events

* Timonium Motorcycle Show on 12 Feb 2012; come join the WORMS for a look at some cool bikes and accessories! Look for details in an official WORMS e-mail. We want to arrive at the show around 11AM. Look for the $5 discount coupon on their site. As a special treat, we don't want to miss the swimsuit model search on Sunday to see who wins a trip to the Bahamas to compete in The International Bikini Team Grand Finals!!! The WORMS were at the 2011 show and it was a blast.

There are plenty of custom bikes to see.


* Mountainfest Celebration in Morgantown WV 26 July through 29 July 2012 Details coming this spring, but we need to purchase tickets and arrange lodging in May.

Yes, they're back!

The 2012 International Motorcycle Show in Washington DC, 15 Jan 2012


The WORMS have been attending the International Motorcycle Show at the Washington DC Convention Center for a number of years. The number of bikes on display appears to be less these last few years but you still get to sit on most of them to get the feel for the bikes. Rose, Jim, Sandra and Allen met for breakfast at our usual Merrifield Silver Diner restaurant in VA. Rather than driving over to the Orange line Metro just up the street, we elected this time to drive to Crystal City, park for free in their underground parking lots, and then take a yellow-line Metro train from the Crystal City station to the Convention Center Metro station. This was a smart idea and Allen has finally caught on to the need for us to ride a yellow-line train in the interest of saving time and effort. So, we got there quickly and had a great time sitting on lots of bikes. Around 1PM we decided we had enough fun so we headed over to Matchbox Pizza (near Chinatown) for a delicious sampling of beer, pizza and rum. Matchbox is our new favorite restaurant for 2012, at least until another favorite comes along. Enjoy the pictures - wish we had more WORMS present but the four of us had a great time talking about coming rides for 2012. We hope everyone is up for Mountainfest this year near the end of July! Steppenwolf is playing again!

Sandra is quite the comedian; wait until she sees Allen's credit card bills from Christmas...
