Let the record show that on Saturday, September 18, 2021, the PA/NJ-area Ironhead Owners, Riders, and Lovers group held our bi-annual gathering known worldwide as the "GBB."
This was a special gathering because it celebrates the 10th anniversary of our event. I can tell you with certainty, had you told us back in 2011 that the gatherings would be held twice a year for the next 10 years, we surely would have laughed you off. But here we are 10 years later, and the PA/NJ Ironhead gathering has evolved into the premier Ironhead Sportster-specific gathering, unmatched anywhere else around the world!
The solo ride to the diner on the morning of the GBB is like Christmas morning for me:

Let's get right to the good stuff because I know you opened this thread to see Ironhead photos, not read a history lesson on the GBB.
Saturday 9/18/21 was blessed by the Ironhead gods with beatiful fall weather, and 13 Ironhead RIDERS came out to share in the glory of the GBB. I do have to apologize for not remembering everyone's name, but if your name is not mentioned, feel free to add it below.
There are few sights more magnificent than the lineup of Ironheads out front of Orlando's Grill in Ringoes, NJ:
