RIDE RECAP

Those who could not attend todays ride were missed and also missed a great ride. Nine bikes took part in the ride with myself and my faithful copilot Maritza (the lone female on the ride) in the lead, Gene was a perfect tail gunner and Rich, John, Hector, George, Ben, Mike O, and Rob filled the middle of the pack. There were no mechanical problems, mishaps, near misses or rain drops. Everyone's riding was superb. The group stayed tight, lane changes seemed effortless and in general the riding was skillful and enjoyable. I was proud to be a part of this riding group today. We were out for 11.5 hours, traveled almost 400 miles through the Pocono Mountains with 6 stops for gas, lunch and sight seeing and dispite about 45 minutes of traffic congestion coming home on the GWB and Cross Bronx Expressway, we ended the ride only 5 minutes past the projected end time of 7:00 pm. All in all it was a really great day of riding. Thank you again to those who participated.

RIDE DETAILS
The Ride has been re-scheduled for this Sunday the 28th. Same time......meet at 7:00 am or earlier, Kick stands up at 7:30 am sharp. Same place.....gas station at LIE exit 43 in Syosset. If your feeling anything like I am, you're dying to get out on a nice long ride. This Sunday is it. The weather hasn't exactly been the greatest for riding and this weekend is supposed to be really nice. So I hope to see a lot of bikes on Sunday. This ride is approximately 400 miles and will bring us back to exit 48 Round Swamp Road at about 7:00pm. EZ-PASS is a MUST. Hope to see you all there.
