Making the trip to Louisville was a tough one! With the Gangster Van loaded up with swag we left Richmond at the crack of dawn, the plan was to drive straight thru to Louisville non stop. Crossing into West Virginia the snow and sleet started, no plows, no salt spreaders, it seemed like it was just us on the highway.
We made frequent gas stops to adjust air pressure in the tires, clean the windshield and the headlights. The sun didn't shine thru the storm clouds all day, phone calls back to the Gangster Choppers Global Headquarters reveled that a record breaking storm had hit the area! Power was out, roads were closed, wow the mayhem!
We pressed thru and made the show date. I am personally glad we did, I met the most sincere and true bikers anywhere in the USA in Louisville. The storm had weeded out the fakes, the posers. The spectators were telling me stories about cutting tree limbs out of the roadway to drive there, many lost electricity but still came out.
As always we bring you the story with pictures! Enjoy.
