Update.So, Heres the deal
June 25th:Thursday night :We are going to be doing a small pre-party at Uncle Paulies Bar located in the burbs of Chicago. North ave(64) and Bloomingdale roads. We will be there from from 8pm-10pm. Nothing big, just drinking some beers and looking at the dancing ladies. No cover to get in. Designated bike parking in front.
June 26th: Friday: For those of you who want to ride out with us we will be re-meeting and leaving from Uncle Paulies at 9am sharp taking North Ave (route 64) 140miles into Savanna (about 3 hours).We will be camping at Poopys pub in Savannah IL. http://poopys.com/
Camping is on a first come, first serve basis. Its free, and they have 2 showers and a bathroom that should be 24 hours. Telling ya now,,,,get there as early as you can. David Allen Coe is playing the bar on Sunday and I have a feeling alot of people will be there for the weekend. Plus, Friday night is Poopys bike night.
For the rest of the day you have some options. You could ride 60 miles west to Anamosa Iowa and go to the National Motorcycle Museum, http://www.nationalmcmuseum.org/Or just hang around town, check out the scenary and relax.Nightlife:
You can stay at Poopys,start a bonfire, or go into the small downtown area and look for trouble. Iron Horse is a cool little barhttp://www.ironhorsesocialclub.com/
Sat:Scenic ride TBA approx 130 miles.
Sun:We need to be out kinda early around 10am because the concert starts at 1pm. If you would like to stay tickets are $20 pre-sale and $30 at the door. You can call Poopys for more info.They are only selling 1,000 tickets......I do not have any ties to this event, just letting you guys know.
We will be heading home north on 84 into Elzabeth and taking route 20 east back towards Chicago approx 160 miles
Of course, you dont have to do everything we're doing. Just show up on your chop, camp out, drink some beers and have a good time.
I Hope enough people show up to make me want to organize one for 2010!We are in the process of making T-shirts and we hope to have a pre-sale on them soon.

What the fuck is this all about?????
Heres the scoop....The West has (Had R.I.P) the EDR, the East has the Gypsy Run
The Midwest needs some chopper love.
What: Violation Tour
Date: June 26th to 28th 2009
Start. Somewhere around Chicago ( to be announced)
End: Savanna, IL
No trailers, No Chase trucks No Baggers! & No Fucktards!..!..!..!..!..!..!!!!!
Savanna IL is a small little town which is completely biker friendly.Theres a little downtown area thats pretty cool but, more importantly, theres great roads to cruise on in the area.This will be loosely a underground type deal that will stray away from stock bikes and billet barges. It will be mostly spread by word of mouth. Before. If you have a modified stock bike done in good taste and think its worthy please email me at chrishartman13@hotmail.com I have only seen 1 softail so far that would be more than welcomed. Hope this is clear enough. Anyone can ride a comfy bagger with a windshield, radio, heated grips and camp.
Its more of a challenge on a hardtail.
We are expecting these types of bikes to be present:Tastefully done Choppers, Bobbers, Panheads, Shovels, Ironheads, Rats, Cafes, Brits, Jap Crappers, all vintage iron and dirty jockey shifters.
I know theres alot of guys around Chicago who ride so, drop the excuse of being to far, cant get vacation time, my wife has my balls in a jar etc etc.
The Dirty Details: This will be a weekend type deal. We will be leaving from the Chicagoland area on Friday morning. If you live around the area you are more than welcome to ride responsibly with us or, go your own route.
Friday: once we get into town, we will set up camp, maybe hit the town or ride 60 miles west to the Vintage Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa Iowa. This will be about a 3 hour ride west from Chicago to Savanna IL and about another hour west to Anamosa.Those of you who would rather leave Saturday morning for some reason would be ok as well.
Saturdays Plans: Loose plans as of now: 150 mile-200 mile scenic ride. This will not be an escorted ride. Everyone will be given a set of directions and a map. Every man for himself type of deal.
Sat night: Party/Bonfires/Terrorize the locals etc etc
Were the fuck are we staying? We have a good idea of where we would like to camp. Its behind a "biker" bar and its free. They have (2) 24 hour bathrooms/showers. I am sure it wont be a problem I just want to confirm it with the owners first. If not, we do have other options.
Camping is on a first come first serve basis.Whenever I have been there I have never seen more than 15 tents but, ya never know.
They serve Breakfeast, lunch, and Dinner, and its pretty affordable. They also have a small parts store although, I heard they got rid of their service department
Sunday: Depart and head home
So, thats pretty much it for now.Everyone is responsible for their own bike and actions. We dont need any tough guy attitudes either. Take care of your own shit.
We dont need any fuckheads who will be doing burnouts through the campgrounds or drunks riding around our bikes. I think you get the idea. We would like to continue this yearly depending on how things turn out. Stay in touch and look for updates!!!!
