Kind of like a permanent rally or cafe stopover for bikers!
Still like the idea and the increase in value would have made it worth while just to have a go, don't think I would have lost money even if it didn't work.
20/20 hindsight again, just lacked the balls to do it. Cheers John.
PS: It is a Motel complex now.

I grew up in Woodville, last time there I went and had a look but was with people who didn't appreciate the atmosphere.
I thought it looked good. I used to think it was a HD (HOG) club!
I think it was Bonze (KB'r) who enlightened me about it. Cheers John.

A biker town in the US, imagine after they have $30 worth of $2 beers and then crash there asses on there way out of town. Guys lying on the ground with his leather vest, fingerless gloves and chaps ripped up, bleeding everywhere and sobbing. A guy stops "are you okay bud?"
"Im a orthodontist, look at my hands, I'm ruined!"
"You could sue the guy who sold you the beer or the guy who made the town"
"great idea, I need my smart jewish lawyer"
"I can find him for you, where is he?"
"hes about a mile ahead wearing a german helmet and riding a west coast choppers jacket on a tassled, loud and overchromed harely"
"You idiot, we'll never find him, we all look like that!"

Would,nt be a german helmet,it would be a stars n stripes bandana.Still like the idea of it though.

yeah I used the german helmet thing to point out the irony of a jewish guy wearing one.
