On
Saturday, the small community of Atlanta was
literally bursting with motorcycles. The Canaryville
Motorcycle Club along with members of a few other
biker organizations rode into town on their way to a
barbecue at the Illinois Governor's Manson. Among
the more than 350 bikes and riders was Illinois
Governor Bruce Rauner. The clubs spent about 30
minutes in Atlanta enjoying the opportunity to visit
with some of the local folk, check out the Paul
Bunyon Statue and pay a visit to the Palms Grill.
