Lots of great rides and the Bombers made us feel very welcome.
Bands were great and I wanna thank all those that stopped by to purchase something for me to get gas money back home.
Also
a BIG thanks to Dan for stopping and helping me GET to the show when I had a blowout on the side of the road!

Bombs Away Bash was a success!

 

Wow! What a blowout weekend. Lots of cool people and cool cars and bikes at the BASH this year. I'd like to thank everyone that was involved in helping us with the show and everyone that came to support our event. Thanks Soooo Much to all you guys and gals! I know I can't name em all so Thanks to John Wells of Vintage Torque, Hair Ink, Murder Pin-ups, LNP and all the other vendors and swappers that made the show. HUGE Thanks to Heavy Metal Stunts for keeping people entertained with great stunt show riding all day long. I have to thank all the bands, The Coco Butter Kids, KrankDaddies and The Bible Belt Sinners, they all played great sets for all to watch and enjoy and none of it would have happened without my good friend Crazy Charlie who in the middle of a huge family relocation to Florida still came through for us on sound and lighting. Thanks to all the lovely ladies that participated in the Pin-up contest this year, it's was the best yet! Special Thanks and a Congrats to Ms. Bombs Away Bash 2011 winner Eli Row!
No show throughout the year happens without the support and friendship from all our fellow clubs. Thanks to The Chrome Czars, OutKast Motor Mob, Paddys CC, Blacktop Barons CC, Twisted Shifters, etc...I know there where others there that I didn't get to see and meet. Can't forget the locals either like Central Illinois Cruziers and River City Drifters.
HUGE Thanks to Full Throttle Midwest Magazine for their sponsorship and support.
HUGE Thanks to the Leathernecks MC for handling all the bikes and just being there to show thier support. They are an awesome bunch of guys that all gave of themselves to serve for our great country. Salute...
Bomber Bj...See you all again soon.

Great show. I wish I could have stayed later. The Burger Barge is a very cool place with great burgers. Thanks to the Bombers for putting this on.

Didn't get to stay as long as I would have liked, but my wife had other plans and we had our baby daughter with us. Had a great time while I was there though.
