So what, exactly Does happen at a BMW2 b-fest gathering??

Well for starters, folks gather outside to see who can get the coldest quickest....

next we often decorate one of the unlucky participants motorcycle in some appropriately themed manner

Image

then later on, after we have finally realized it Really IS cold out there, the animation below shows what a typical scene might look like (and in this case, indeed did happen, I'm not making this up, well OK, perhaps a bit...but....)

2 guys (probable ex-cons judging by the manner in which they are banging their cups on the table) demanding more coffee (Hey, it was Cold outside!) while the third dude sits
shaking his head in disbelief, either at the proceedings in general, or perhaps his being a party to it in particular (and chewing gum at the same time! Now That's talent!)
as the remaining Femme Fatale pretends to ignore it all while furiously scribbling notes for her memoirs!

Remember, you heard it here first...

Haha great pics. I saw the reindeer horns on lots of cars this winter but this is the first I've seen them on a bike. I need to make it out to one of these breakfasts one day. Probably when it's a bit warmer out. You guys are troopers.

ROTF LOL - Rocketman! :roller3: :roller3: :roller3:

It’s hilarious to be on the other side of the camera lens for a change! =D>

Blixa, you’ll note that Jeff doesn’t stay up much past 8:30 anymore, so he won’t be the photographer at the grown-ups' Holiday Party in Fairfax! :bigdrink:

RM,

Ha ha--well done!

And it's nice to see Gene in the photo. Turns out he and I work at the same agency! (Well, until I retire, anyway... :wink: )
