While we are hard at work preparing the announcement of our new tour, I realized this tour was missing something… A good story from West Chester, the home of Big Wheel Biker Gang Headquarters. So, while you wait for the new tour, sit back, pour yourself a drink, and indulge in the tales of Halloween from West Chester, PA.
Unforeseen circumstances left us with only two BWBG members for the night. But one biker or six bikers, we still ride with the same fire in our hearts. That said, Snake and I rolled down to the local 7-11 with Midnight, because even though we’re the Big Wheel Biker Gang, the beer ain’t free. Midnight was already picking up the ladies and had to sit for a few photos before we could leave the 7-11. With the first photos of the night behind us, we were off to 15 North for the costume contest. Bars aren’t very horse friendly, but we pushed through. Midnight did get a little too frisky with a few ladies, but luckily they couldn’t resist those deep blue eyes of his. Unfortunately the costume contest didn’t turn out to be the contest we hoped it would be. They had a Napolean Dynamite in the finals? Maybe we were stuck in a time warp. Perhaps it was time for a change of location. Just as the BWBG trio was about to depart, we came across a few of our favorite fans, Justin, Steve-O, and Becca. Taking over the streets is much easier with six!
The costume contest being a bust, we were off to Ryan’s Pub. Along the way, we ran into Superman and Supergirl. I suppose Superman was tired of flying, because he decided to take Midnight for a spin. Supergirl tried to hitch a ride with the two of them, but couldn’t quite hold on. Next was the lovely Tara in full riding gear. Hat, riding crop, the whole deal. Who better to take Midnight for a ride than a professional? After a few photo ops with Midnight, she took to giving Snake a lashing with her riding crop. I’ll leave you to draw your own conclusions about that one…
Arriving at Ryan’s Pub, just a short ride from 15 North when you’re riding a big wheel, the owner asked me to come to the side door with him. Thinking he was going to tell Midnight he couldn’t come in, I was a little disappointed. To my surprise, he opens the door, clears a path and tells me he wants me to ride Midnight through the bar. Not being one to disappoint, I hopped right on, secured our capes, and pedaled my way all the way around the bar. Good thing the floors are flat! Ryan’s Pub must have been the place for 15 North, because we ran into some ex-bouncers drinking away. The costume contest winner at Ryan’s Pub? Bernie from Weekend at Bernie’s 2. A man I would be happy to lose a costume contest to. Oh well…
Many a beer and photo behind us, it was closing time and time to take to the streets again. This time we ran into an imposter Batman (obviously I was the real Batman, if I had Robin following me around), Flavor Flav, Santa’s helper, Chippendale Chris Farley, and many more… Quite the night for Snake, Midnight, and I.

I hope everyone had a geat Halloween! Until next time…
