On Saturday, November 13th, Pudge & Duval drove the familiar road down to DC
Cruisers to see what was going on at their pre-Thanksgiving Turkey Shoot Out. While the
weather was a tad nippy that day, there were some dedicated riders that braved the forces
and rode out to join the festivities. Others packed the family into the station wagon and
enjoyed a warmer ride to Gaithersburg.
The big draw of the day were the world-renowned custom builders, Joe & Jason
Martin, aka The Martin Brothers, off of the Discovery Channel and Speed Channel. The
Martin Brothers took part in the festivities by participating in a Mini Chopper Rodeo
Contest for riders competing to get the Fastest Rider title and a Turkey Paintball Shoot Out
sponsored by Pez's Paintball. For anyone else, like me, that might have wondered - the
turkeys that they were shooting paintballs at were not real turkeys, only fake cutouts made
to look like turkeys!
And don’t think that this close to Turkey Day, DC Cruisers didn’t have a meal to
serve up! Famous Dave’s was there providing a turkey style dinner with all the fixin's and
Hitman the DJ was rocking the beats with all the greatest classic and hard core rock.
And, in addition to the P&OM camera boys, the film crew from Discovery Channel
and On The Road With Harley Davidson was on-site to share the fun and excitement with
the rest of the world that was not so close to Gaithersburg.
