RenegadeMagazine.comReliability run another good ol time was had cruising the
streets with the Derelicts CC, during their annual Hot Rod
Reliability Run, to collect dog food and donations benefit -
ing animal charity/rescue groups of Central Florida.
After driving around 80 miles me and Hell Billy along with
his crew of Gasket Goons, arrived at the starting point
for this years ride ready to rock -n-roll! The starting point
was the Exploration Tower in Port Canaveral. I got to get
a birds eye view when club president aka Elvis invited
me up to the top of the tower for a few pics of everyone
in the parking lot.
Our next stop was at Paddy Cassidy’s Irish Pub, where
we caught up with my good friend Lucky from the Hard
Luck crew.
Unfortunately just as everyone was getting into the
groove, Johnny Law had to show up and harsh every-
one’s buzz, by first harassing the over flow crowd out side
the bar, threatening $100 open container tickets. Then

they proceeded to patrol the parking lot checking tags.
So after that everyone decided to move on to the next
stop, The Sebastian Beach Inn, in Melbourne.
It was about this time I realized I forgot to bring my spare
battery for my camera and my battery had just died. So
all of the photos in this spread were shot with my iPhone
4s, so they are a bit more grainy than my regular camera,
but over all not bad for a phone. It was at this stop many
grabbed a bit to eat at the bar while the rest of us mingled
among the cars in the lot telling stories, while having a
few more cold ones.
Then it was on to Lou’s Blues in Indiatlantic for the final
stop of the run where me and Bill had our first meal of
the day, and from here on it all gets a little blurry, all I
remember is going to the after party, doing shots called
Black Cadillac’s, and something about me dropping a
beer bottle in front of some midget back at the hotel by
the pool... As Ronald Reagan once said, “I don’t recall
that incident”...
