The Rolling Barrage – Fun Stuff

About The Rolling Barrage – Fun Stuff

This is a little corner of The Rolling Barrage website where we will take some of the interactions from posts created from our Facebook page and relay it here for the whole world to see. It can be anything from a contest being run to maybe a funny meme, picture , or video added into the fray. The end goal is to understand as serious as our mission is, there has to be fun and good times in the mix.

The Rolling Barrage – May 2023 Contest had riders from all over the country show off their ride. This was a very hard contest for Carola Singer who is on the Board of Directors for The Rolling Barrage to judge.

Anyone who has ventured out to Okotoks Alberta during The Rolling Barrage knows Carola is a major reason the wonderful community of Okotoks supports her for its success as a Rolling Barrage event.

The winner of the May 2023 Contest – Show and Shine is Nigel Colley. Congratulations Nigel on winning a $50.00 Petro Canada Fuel Card. Nigel is a big supporter of The Rolling Barrage. A Full Pull – Alumni and fantastic supporter of The Rolling Barrage.

The Rolling Barrage – April 2023 Contest had people showing themselves in our merchandise. There were some creative responses, pictures, and they were all appreciated. In the end there is a winner and Warren Cave and family are it. Even the lovely dog threw on an old-school bandana around the neck.

Warren wins himself a $25.00 gift card from Petro Canada. Congratulations Warren.

We asked our readers at the beginning of March 2023, on our Facebook page if they listen to music while riding their motorcycles, what would be the Top 5 songs on their playlist. The playlists with the most, Likes, Loves, interactions and comments played a part in the overall decision.

So we will start with the No# 1 – Playlist and work our way to No# 5. I think we also have an Honorable Mention in here too. Plus the No#1 song!

No# 1 – Coming in after dusting off a couple of AC/DC cassette tapes, with an all AC/DC playlist to rock those miles away is Sheila Bonia White. A whopping 9 likes and 2 loves. Here’s her playlist.

No# 3 – This one was tough. Two contenders in this spot to be honest, so we had to break down all the analytics, make an Excel Level 4 spreadsheet, drop it into the Matrix and burn midnight oil… nah.. I put their names on paper in a bowl, stirred them around and picked one. No# 3 is Mark Doratti. Here’s his playlist.

No#5 – Ok, so you know on those shows when the game master asks a question like “what is the capital of Canada?” And the excited contestent screams out “BACON!!!” This is one of those times. Coming in @ No#5 playing spoons, juice harps, and god knows what else is Chris Sainsbury and his No#5 playlist.

“Newfie music the whole way” oh and an arm flex and happy face with sunglasses emoji added.

Thank you Chris.. I now need a drink @ 7:00 am and therapy. 

Honourable Mention – Why do I feel like Alex Trebek on Saturday Night Live doing Jeopardy? With the Honourable Mention is Harm Solo.

Now before everyone gets all excited, I had to warn him about his first submission which all sounded like 70’s Porn jams. So he edited it… and this one song from his list I like. I liked it so much its the No#1 Song also!

Anyway, that’s it folks. Great work on the Playlists. Sadly there is no prizes. I asked the Board of Directors and the answer was something like; “we’re not giving prizes for this s***.” 

“The page is called Fun Stuff!” … No one listens to me.
