I am pretty sure that it is ON.

At least that is what I read on vintage sleds.

It was a blast last year, we rode about 65 or so miles with a cookout at the HOF Museum at the end.

POKER RUN IS ON FRIDAY, FEB 18 THEN THE RIDE WITH THE CHAMPS IS SATURDAY, THE 19TH.

While not an official HOF sponsored event, the poker run starts and ends at the HOF and the cookout is in our picnic area by the museum. The annual open house for the SHOF early arrivers starts at 3 pm and all are welcome to come along for the fun and meet early arrivers and new inductees.

As of today, there are still openings for the 28th RIDE WITH THE CHAMPS by Modine HotDawg Garage Heaters.

Eric,
If you want to play, I think last year it was $5 or $10 a hand. There were 4 rest stops where we picked a card each time and it was recorded. I believe the last card was drawn at the cookout.

Heres the info on the Poker Run...

2nd annual Loose Lugnutz Poker run and shakedown is scheduled for Friday Feb 18th, 2011 Ride will leave the hall of fame at 9:00 and will make several stops in the St Germain area. Ride should end up of being 40-50 miles. A little lake racing to see who’s got the fastest vintage Iron may also be in order..Tentative arrival back at the Hall will be 3:30-4:00 where we will have a small cookout and award the trophies. We will hand out a very special trophy for the poker run winner. We will also have a few other trophies for some fun categories. Winning poker hand will also receive a cash prize. A little change this year on the prize money: we will give out money to the top (3) poker hands. Half of all money raised goes direct to the Hall of Fame and the other half goes to the winning hands. We are expecting a good turnout. Poker run cards can be purchased from me at the Hall of fame that morning. You can play as many cards as you like. The Hall of Fame is very busy this time of year and leading up to the Ride with the Champs which is the day after the poker run. So with specific questions regarding the poker run please contact me direct.

Thanks!

Jeff
