Halifax Bikers

We Ottawa residents are used to the fact that motorcyclists like to gather in a public place on a summer evening. In our town, they gather in the Byward Market at William and York. I've never asked, but I believe they like to be near the beavertail stand.

In Halifax, there are no beavertails; so the bikers gather at the waterfront where they can be close to Theodore the Tugboat.

They must have watch the show, if it's still on TV.

I bet that the little boys who grew up to be bikers all loved Theodore the Tugboat when they were kids.

Thomas the Train too.

When I was at the Halifax harbour a few weeks ago I coincidentally noticed that they do have a Beaver Tails stand there now. Being from Ottawa, I felt kind of possessive when I saw it, but your hypothesis does remain valid.

This kind of freaks me out.
