Here are the details:
The 2014 Long Distance motorcycle-riding season is coming to a chilly close. °F evenings with a wind chill of 30°F. (at least that’s what it feels like.)
The Iron Butt InterNational Meet, and many regional LD and 24-hour rallies, Saddle Sores, Bun Burners, 50CCs, UCC, 48++, and B2Bs are in the bag. It’s time to have a little non-competitive fun!!
Welcome to the 13th Annual “Bite the Wieeenie” Ride-To-Eat at Pink’s Hot Dogs in Los Angeles, Saturday, Nov 15, 2013.
Bite the Wieeenie is not a membership based event. It is open to riders of all idiosyncrasies.
Pink's is a honest-to-goodness Hollywood icon, sub-cultural gathering spot and past Iron Butt Rally bonus location. The establishment doesn't know we are coming nor do they care. Whether you're a twerking Mike Kneebone, a demure Lisa Landry, Kim, Khloe, Kourtney or Elvis, everyone waits in line. And the +1-hour wait at midnight for a $3.85 chili dog is aunique Hollywood experience.
Jacked up pickups, bouncing lowriders, Porsches, pimpmobiles, junkers and fully farkled 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, wedding dresses, grunge street wear and barefoot surfers standing in line.
What kind of person rides 1,000 - 1,500 miles in 24 hours for a hot dog?? We typically get 100+ riders 75% from CA but the rest are from Canada, WA, OR, ID, UT, CO, NV, AZ, NV, NM,TX and there's a group riding over from FL.
NEWS FLASH! The Long Beach International Motorcycle Show runs Nov 14, 15 & 16. The Long Beach Convention Center and Pinks are 29 miles apart!
