FJR riders have always been big supporters of "Bite The Wieeenie"! And this year, FJR riders won the top three finish positions in the premiere 2013 Iron Butt Rally. 5 of the top 10 finishers rode FJRs. What more can be said of this incredible riding platform.
The 2013 Long Distance riding season is coming to a chilly close. And goodness, out here in So Cal some of us are even crankin’ up our heated gear in these low 60 degree F evenings with a wind chill of 30. (at least that’s what it feels like.)
"Bite the Wieeenie" Ride-To-Eat at Pink’s Hot Dogs, 10 PM in Los Angeles, Saturday, Nov 16, 2013.
To shake things up this year we will have a “GUEST HOST” of unknown repute! Mark Crane, Iron Butt Rally finisher from the Bay Area will meet, greet and document your attendance by getting you all to sign-in. He claims he knows what he’s doing but …
Bite the Wieeenie is not a membership based event. It's main attendees are long distance riders ... from Canada, western US and every year, a couple of riders from the east coast! It is open to riders of all idiosyncrasies.
Pink's is a honest-to-goodness Hollywood icon, sub-cultural gathering spot and past IBR bonus location. The establishment doesn't know we are coming nor do they care. Whether you're a twerking Mike Kneebone, a wrecking ball rider Lisa Landry, Kim, Khloe, Kourtney or Elvis, everyone waits in line. And the 1-hour+ wait at midnight for a $3.45 chili dog is a unique Hollywood experience.
Jacked up pickups, bouncing lowriders, Porsches, pimpmobiles, and junkers and LD motorcycle rigs all share a miniscule parking lot while stretch limos and Hummers circle the block while their contents wait in the 1-hour+ line.
Besides us LDRiders with ATGATT, it would not be unusual to see unique body piercing, facial tattoos, the best body modifications that money can buy, spikes and dreadlocks, prom dresses, grunge street wear and barefoot surfers standing in line.
