I am going to try to make it if my sore back is up to it. Street Atlas shows it located just east of Kautz Rd about half way between Roosevelt Rd. & North Ave. Is that correct?

Mark,
That's correct.

Ah! That explains the scads of bikes I saw on 64 near St. Charles for. I was there in town for the gun show and I had to spend a few hours at work while I was there in town.

Hey, I actually saw my first Vic (other than my own) being ridden today! If I remember right it was a red and black V92C heading East on 64 through downtown St.Charles at about 9:15 in the AM. By any chance was that someone here?

[SIDECAR]

Shaft, Daffy and I were on the run but not near rt. 64. To bad you could not make it, we had a great day for the ride. Also my Vegas took fisrt place again it the bike show crusier class.

It was an awesome day to ride, that's for sure.

Hey when you mention DuKane ABATE is that in reference to the DuKane on Kirk in St. Charles?

[SIDECAR]

No, (Dupage/Kane Co.) DuKane ABATE ( A Botherhood Amied Towards Education) Chapter. A Motorcycle Rights organization.

Ah. DuPage and Kane. That makes sense. Probably how the company DuKane got their name.
Cool. Thanks.
Ride safe.
