Friday the 13th is rolling by again, watch out for the bikers they will be heading to and from Port Dover Ontario by the thousands for the next few days.
Since 1981, there has been a tradition of bikers gathering in Port Dover for Friday the 13th. Chris Simons and a bunch of freinds, through word of mouth, got together at the old Commercial Hotel. It was Friday the 13th of November. They had such a good time they decided to do it every Friday the 13th. On Friday, June 13, 2008 an estimated 150,000 bikers and spectators converged on Port Dover.

The Bikes are Back in Port Dover
Another Friday 13th has come and gone without any notable news from Port Dover where thousands upon thousands of bikers go EVERY Friday the 13th.

I live about an hour from Port Dover (not a biker) and had several hundred bikes go by my house through the day in some very large groups where a normal nice March day there might be twenty or thirty all day.
This is an excellent time to remind people to look out for the bikes, they've been scarce in the Northern areas for a while.
Check your mirrors twice, of course make sure they are aimed for maximum view, and give the bikers a chance, a motorcycle is no match for a car or a truck when it changes lanes.

Oh yeah, you can check out my Smoke Tree too.
