Mama Tried, she surely did… and not speaking of Mom.. but the motorcycle show “Mama Tried”
Milwaukee Wisconsin, February 2023.
The ole’ lady treated us to a weekend getaway, just the two of us. Got me a couple days off from work n’ a couple bucks in my pocket, room reserved, and a special surprise or two so says the wife. We’ll talk about that later.
Blew outta the house bright and early Thursday morning and headed toward the windy city, thru downtown without a problem which is a bit out of the ordinary for Chicago. On up into cheese country where we ran smack dab into a snow storm, no big deal for a Michigan Native truck driver... got our room, supper, and a beer.
Friday was spent roaming the city just sightseeing, Milwaukee has mad respect for their Veterans. Salute to you Milwaukee, VA hospital and services directly across the street from our room. We took a self-guided tour thru the “Soldiers Home” and grounds where over 300,000 grave markers dating back to the Civil War are considered
As riding season comes to a close in the northern states, taking steps to prepare your Harley for hibernation is crucial.
