Event Coverage 2nd Milwaukee hound & hare run Aug 30th

Hey everyone,
I am holding the 2nd Milwaukee hound and hare run August 30th at 1:30 P.M. again at the nite owl drive in 830 E Layton Ave Milwaukee, WI 53207-5235.

If you don't rember last years thread the rules of a hound and hare run are simple. Every one meets at the nite owl the orgainizers will have marked a course with pink flags at every turn, when you come to a flag you have to guess if you turn left or right, if you don't see another flag within a few miles turn around and go back. The finish line is undisclosed but will be marked and you will know what marks it before the start of the race. The driver with the shortest time to the finish is the winner. Navigators are suggested but not required.

This is a free event with free food and drinks at the finish. This year I'm trying to go all out so expect a longer course.

Here's some links with info on last years event:

Is it open to sickles as well Joe?

Sincerely,
Cheatercarl

 

why....ya got a sickle? you on two wheels.....hmmmm

 

Wingnuts scared the **** out of me last year. I am going to run my own ride this year. Mark you will need a new patsy for your 180's. This is a great event put on by a great guy who is serving our country with the USMC. Come out and support him. Oh and it's the day after the 10th Cheaterama... Thanks Joe for putting this on.

Yes! bikes are welcome. We didn't have any show up last year though so maybe we'll get one or two this year. I'm hoping to have some time to post some pictures from last years event tomorow.

 

This is a GREAT time!!

count me in!

 

Here's the pictures I've been promising. The one's at the Nite Owl are from the start of the race the rest are at Burnheart's which was the finish line last year. But, this year we will have a diffent finish line so don't think it will be too easy.

 

Sounds real cool man. Dealing with an interstate lost ***le situation- hopefully I'll have that cleared up by then (otherwise I'll just drive her with the old owner's outta state plates like I did all last summer). Thanks for putting this together.

 

My car was at the interior shop last year for the 1st Hound run Joe, but this year shes ready to roll!
Looking forward to the Hare part, I love rabbits.

Love,
Cheatercarl

 

It remains to be seen whether I'll make it back this year or not, but if I can swing it I'll be there.

 

Hey I found some more pictures last night these are all at Burnheart's. Hey wingnutz thats a pretty nice picture of your roadster hey, and look at that PBRmeASAP we're pushing your car.

 

Will there be an "Anti-Billy Boy Brad BBQ" like the one he hosts for our clubs show?
I can't wait!

Can I bring my cats?

Cheatercarl

 

Thanks for the memories Joe!

Andrew...you should come down...remember how much fun we had pushing.....build it drive it, break it

 

This thing sounds pretty f'ing cool, maen. I most definitely like the parking where ever you want. That's pretty much how I roll with my cycle. I think right about now I should insert- It's a lifestyle man.

 

Big A I sure hope you can make it.
acRocker sounds good it would be cool to have some bikes this year.

 

I ain't got a ride that works but would like to ride ***** with someone, this thing sounds like fun.

Ah yeah my seat is really like a single. I need my spacah.... And and get your damn bike on the road. Tryin to get a free sqeeze. mumble mumble mumble.

 

I would totaly be up for riding on your handle bars.

 

from what I hear theres a pretty good buzz around town thanks for spreading the word carl

 

Whoa Whoa WHOA! Hey I been doin plenty of talkin myself, bub. And I don't mean trash talk on this here thread. I mean talkin it up with the people of the two wheel variety.

Oh yeah and don't tell your lady nothin about the route. I want her on the back of my ride. Dig.

 

and your help is much appreciated, it will be awesome to see some bikes this year. As far as Natalie riding with you we'll have to talk about that since she's suppose to be the flag girl. Trust me she'll look much better waving a flag then I will.

 

I'm working on the prize bag for this year it should be good. Ask wingnutz about last years.

 

I'm heading out to the feild to do some training bright and early tomorow so I won't be on the board for a few weeks. keep the buzz going. I'll have my soon to be wife post updates as they arrise.

 

bttt.... it's next week boys....

 

less than a week left I'll be in milwaukee in about a day to hammer out the final details and I've got some stuff in my carry on for the prize bag
