Hey dukesdad....

Exhaust from 300 bikes, of which probably 90% or more don't have catalytic converters.. or mufflers for that matter..

Might as well just suck exhaust right out of someone's tail pipe.. Might be where your headaches came from..

I didn't smell much. I just only had a piece of toast before going. I needed to eat, but I didn't. I didn't get any fumes except from my bike, which runs rich.

Quite possibly, also a bit of heat and not staying hydrated enough will do it. I think that was my issue...

"didn't get any fumes.." Lady, you was at the end of the pack!!! If ANYONE got carbon monoxide overdose, it was you!!!

I sucked two bottles of water down at the bar and was dehydrated when I came home. It was hot. I shouldn't have worn the jacket on the way up, cause I was really hot when I got there and not completely cooled down when we left. Very light headed, but the ride home was good. Speedy Gonzalez slowed down a bit.

You may be right. I was really light-headed when we parked.

You should have said something.... Well, chalk it up to a learning curve.

I was 3 bikes ahead of her and I don't have a headache....Mikey was 2 bikes ahead of me and he and his girl didn't have headaches either

I think she just didn't eat enough this morning and got a headache

and might I add.....there were a huge mixture of bikes there....from harleys(with and without new pipes) to whatever kind of plastic thing that you ride

I was afraid to eat. I had immodium, toast and a cookie. The immodium worked.

What kind of mufflers reduce carbon monoxide?

I had that jacket on. I shouldn't have worn it......And the big helmet. My neck is sore from keeping my head upright wearing a 20 pound helment on a 2 pound head.

Several new bikes have catalytic converters built into the mufflers. Very difficult to fit aftermarket mufflers.

as long as you're moving, anything you smell is NOT your bike

And muffled or not, how many of them have catalytic converters, and how many are throwing straight fumes into the air?

Unfiltered or untreated exhaust is all the same no matter what kind of bike it's from, and exhaust from 300 tailpipes coupled with the heat and little or no air.. Doesn't really matter if you are on a nice bike, or a rat bike.

The grub was great. You guys should have eaten.

Do you ALWAYS have to be a cycle spoilsport? Why can't this simply be about their good time and accomplishments? This ain't about you, bud.




And all ya'll that went and had a great time - good on ya'll!
