The Pre Run Party UPDATE.

We have a new spot for the pre run party. Originally we were having the party in Hoboken. Circumstances beyond our control forced us to find a new venue. Just as I was starting to freak out I got a call from Bobby Seeger from Indian Larry Motorcycles. After hearing of my predicament he graciously offered up his shop for the new location. So the party is on Thursday Aug. 26 from 6pm till 12am. there will be plenty of bike parking and some refreshments courtesy of Bobby and Indian Larry Motorcycles. I am finding out about hotels and will post them ASAP.
