HOLY ROLLERS - Why I can't be one.

[Hoovie]

I understand the Apostolic Motorcycle Association is called the Holy Rollers.

There are 20,000 plus (possibly as many as 40,000) bikers in town at the Lake of the Ozarks this weekend. http://www.lakeoftheozarksbikefest.com/index.html

I was sort of excited to check them out, but soon realized our interests are very different.

Reasons why I can't be a Holy Roller
1. There was not one motorcycle at my daily stop at the espresso bar. Guess they don't do lattes.

2. Three film crews are in town from "Girls Gone Wild".

3. The World Famous Clydesdales look good in the parade... but just how much beer is sold to pay that motorcade of semi trucks?

4. All the main events are held at restaurants and bars with names like the Horney Toad and about three others I won't even list.

5. Most events are located near Party Cove where law enforcement is constantly dealing with nudity. http://www.lakesunleader.com/article...15/news/02.txt

6. I just can't see my wife havin a "I Love Jesus" tatoo on her shoulder.

7. Cowpies in the barn make being a Holy Roller too messy (courtesy Prax)


How do the Holy Rollers (or other Christian Motorcycle Clubs) deal with this stuff at biker events? I don't know how many Holy Rollers are attending this week, but I do know the Christian Motorcycle Association is here... I find this puzzling.

DISCLAIMER: I "saw" these things taking place while driving and working this weekend, I did not actually attend the events themselves.
