It was a really great day yesterday; I open carried the entire ride and had only possitive comments from people and one or two "you can do that" moments. Most people I know where CCing but I enjoy OCing so I do. I even had one of the BSP guys give possitive feedback while sitting at the park in Mountian Home. I also was on the news but my sidearm wasn't visiable as I was standing next to my wifes green bike and I was carrying my Springfield XD 40cal in OD green....lol

Positive experience all around and a great ride.

I was driving through on my way back to WA and saw the ride go by in the opposite direction. The sheer number of bikes gave me goosebumps.

I was driving through on my way back to WA and saw the ride go by in the opposite direction. The sheer number of bikes gave me goosebumps.

Over 1000 motorcycles and streched out 11 miles on the freeway. This was our fourth year and it has gotten bigger each year.

1st year: 350 bikes
2nd year: 650 bikes
3rd year: 875 bikes
4th year: over 1000 bikes

Now we just need to get more people open carrying other than me and the 9 motorcycle cops doing the escort.
