2007 LUCKENBACH, TEXAS FALL HARVEST CLASSIC MOTORCYCLE FESTIVAL --- PAPA JAY TAKES TROPHY
Papa Jay, John-John Sossaman, Sandy, Sarah Sossaman, Tracey Newman, and Shirley Pope took off for Luckenbach on Friday morning ready to set the world on fire. While Tracey and Shirley rode the Twisted Sisters Highways Stanley Miller, John-John, Sarah, Sandy and Papa Jay looked at all of the motorcycles at the Harvest Classic Festival. This was a great trip and many memories were created during this trip. On the way home the oil dip stick vibrated loose and oil spewed all over Papa Jay's left leg and made a horrible mess on Shirley's windshield and front tire. Thank goodness Stanley Miller came along at the exact right time with paper towels and other items needed to clean us up and get us back on the road. Toting a great trophy home was icing on the cake for Papa Jay.
