Women In Motion Road Guards Lead The Heart Of Wisconsin Tour Riders
Through Some Of Wisconsin's Most Scenic Roads
Posted July 25, 2008
The annual fund raising ride for Accident Scene Management for 2008 took approximately 160 participants through some of Wisconsin’s most beautiful touring areas.
The ride started at the Ho Chunk Casino, near the Wisconsin Dells, on Friday, July 18th, with some scenic touring of the Dells area and a stop at Bala’s Harley-Davidson for breakfast. More touring followed with a lunch stop at Wausau Harley-Davidson. The weather held out even with threats of storms and the riders were encouraged to explore their own routes back to Ho Chunk for the evening party, this year hosted by Edge O’ the Dells Resort. There was a wonderful buffet dinner provided and a live band to compliment the evening festivities. This resort is becoming a biker destination in central Wisconsin and besides the bar-restaurant facilities there is a pool, hot-tub, cabins and campsite and burn-out pit for those bikers tired of their current clutch and tires.
Saturday, the group headed out from the Ho Chunk Casino again with a scenic and challenging ride up Wild Cat Mountain with a stop at Hillsboro for a breakfast, provided by the Country Market folks. From there, a beautiful ride through some of the best roads Wisconsin has to offer on the way to the S&S plant in Viola.
S&S provided lunch and offered tours to any participants who wanted to see the factory where some of the best motors and parts for motorcycles are made. There is a great history here and S&S just recently celebrated its 50th Anniversary with a big party in La Crosse, Wisconsin, site of their distribution center.
Leaving Viola, the ride found its way through more scenic hills and then down to Spring Green and the beautiful area where Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural genius is displayed at the House on the Rock.
When the group arrived in Madison that evening there was just enough time to relax, take a shower and walk from the Wingate Hotel to Reverend Jim’s Roadhouse and a rocking party with live music from Country Storm. That party went right up to closing time and everyone celebrated another wonderful ride for Accident Scene Management. Of course, Sunday was the now famous “Topless Bike Wash” and the ladies had their bikes washed and polished by a crew of some of the guys on this year’s ride.
