By James & Janice Mink The 2015 East Coast Cade Raid was held in Waverly, Ohio. Thirty-six bikers attended, representing 10 states and one Canadian province. In all, there were seventeen Cavalcades, one Suzuki Boulevard, one Yamaha Virago, one Yamaha Raider - plus four vehicles (Cade owners who came to the rally without their Cavalcades). Bill and Janet Dean were the event organizers - and they did a terrific job. Waverly is a middle sized town, and as you can see from the following pictures, a beautiful, scenic area in which to hold a Cade Raid. The weather was perfect. Rain was predicted for Friday, but didn't show up. There was a hint of fall in the air - and evidence of it, in flashes of colour here and there among the trees. We had a wide choice of places to eat. The hotel was clean and comfortable, with great service. The company - as always - was fantastic. A good time was had by all. Individual Photos

The picture of the mural below shows one of the painted panels on the Ohio River flood wall, in Portsmouth, Ohio. The flood wall murals were included in the first day's ride, of the 2015 East Coast Cade Raid. The title on this mural reads, "Nation's Oldest Cycling Club, Established 1893". The copy of the black and white photograph below the heading is titled, "Part of Portsmouth Motorcycle Club, May 18, 1913". The bottom portion of the mural depicts the evolution of motorcycle design.
