Too cold to ride. Johnboy and I took his wife's Prius to the motorcycle swap meet at Belleville fairgrounds. It was $7 to get in the door. Jonhboy was wearing his Kaw hat. Boy did he stand out. lol There was a lot of leather and chrome for sale. A few bikes. One girl in fishnets. Of course the bar was open at 10am. We didn't partake in the adult beverages. It was a good way to burn up some time on a Sunday. We went to Steak and Shake for lunch. It was good but the Spicy Chipotle burger isn't spicy. There's a poker run next weekend that starts at the Inn Between Tavern in Granite City. We talked about riding the poker run. So we went in search of that fine establishment. Although we didn't find it, We did put quite a few miles on the prius. Probably burned up a a gallon and a half of fuel. ;D It's a strange little car. It freaks you out a little at first when it dies at stoplights. It has a backup beeper since it makes no sound when backing up. It is quite roomy inside, rides very well and will run over 90mph.

We did see police basically surrounding a Logan's Steakhouse. Lot's of people dressed like pirates at the swap meet. ;D A rough looking gal in Pontoon Beach spit a big lugy (sp?) in the street. I heard the big bang when a car rear ended another at a stop light. He popped him pretty good.
