Cavaliers join B.L.O.C.K. at Cowpokes

The Cavaliers were among the six clubs represented at the fifth Friday B.L.O.C.K. beer bust on July 30. From left: David of the Cavaliers, Kent of the Knights, Kevin of the Outlaws, Mike of the Bears, Timm of the Lords, and Alan of NOBLE. The event is a great opportunity for members of the various clubs to socailize. The event raised nearly $300 for Belle Reve. Doc and Michael W. were among the Cavaliers on hand for the B.L.O.C.K. event. Timm from the Lords and Alan from NOBLE (and the Lords, and the Cavaliers) get friendly at the B.L.O.C.K event. The event brought out a hot crowd. And Julie even showed up with her brand new 2005 Harley-Davidson.

Cavaliers celebrate first traveling bike night

Michael G. and Doc celebrated with the Cavaliers at their first traveling beer bust and bike night at the Rawhide in July. The Cavaliers plan a bike night at a different venue each month. Michael W. and Michael H. enjoyed the event, while Hanley and John, friends of the Cavaliers, joined in the fun.

Cavaliers join Dining for Life at Fellini's Cafe

The Cavaliers participated in the annual Dining For Life event on July 15 to raise funds for the NO/AIDS project. We had a great meal at Fellini's in Mid City, then stopped at Angelo Brocato's for Italian ice cream.

Cavaliers visit Michael D.'s mom

The Cavaliers took a ride in July to Krotz Springs and visited Michael D's mom at the family homestead. Riders included Doc, Dave, Doug, Michael D., Diane, Juliette, Michael W. and David. The Cavaliers stopped to eat lunch at Pat's in Henderson on the way to Krotz Springs and got a table with a view.

We had a great ride today, with Doc, Michael and Doug, Diane and Juliette, Dave D., joining Michael and me.

Our destination was Pat's Fisherman's Wharf restaurant in tiny Henderson. We had a great meal overlooking the water. It gave us plenty of time to dry off after a heavy shower dumped on us just as we came off the Atchafalaya basin bridge.

Mike D. then led us through the thriving metropolis of Arnaudville, on our way to his hometown of Krotz Springs. We got a tour of the WHOLE TOWN, and even got to meet his mom. Awww! We then headed home to New Orleans, dodging a few showers along the way.

We rode 290 miles today, putting the Cav-o-meter at 19,895 for the year. That puts us over last year's 18,620, and we still have three more months to go!

Between this ride and yesterday's ride to Point a la Hache, Mike and Doug moved ahead of Poncho, Doc moved ahead of Lance, and Diane, Dave D., Bubba and Eric all moved up in the standings.

Cavaliers sell beer to thirsty tourists

Doug and Lance sold beer at the Cavaliers beer bust at Lafitte's on July 3. The event was a very successful fundraiser for our club. Bubba, Doug, Lance, Michael W. and Eric and David also joined in the fun.
