Friday 11/21/14 Ride

Fellow Riders,

  • Friday looks like another day where the forecast is calling for lots of sun but not much heat, just a little.  No rain means OK to ride so those wishing to do so should meet at the Key Mart parking area about 10:30 AM and select a destination and ride leader at that time.  I wished I could join you but I will be playing “Grandpa” this weekend.  I hope it warms up and,  of course, ride safe.   Dan


  • Another good turn out for the Friday riders today.  In Dan's absence, Bob suggested the Waterfall Grill at Cateechee Golf Course in Hartwell, GA.  Lesley stepped up to take the lead since she was the only one that knew how to get there, although several of us had been there before.  The group of eight, led by Lesley, consisted of me, Len, Rob, Steve G., Jim (Wing), Kevin (welcome back!!), and Bob.  The sun and blue skies made for a gorgeous ride around Lake Hartwell as we passed the dam before we got into town.  Although chaps and Harley shirts may not be the dress code for the Waterfall, they gladly seated eight paying customers and took our orders.  The vegetable soup, which had more than a few chili characteristics, was a great choice by Len and I.  Bob introduced us to the sous chef that had recently been the guest chef at the men's cooking club.  By the time we left, the temperature had climbed a few more degrees with the sun making its presence known.  Lesley took us back into Seneca on some classic Oconee county roads that were new to most of us.  The scents of the countryside were in full force as we passed more than a couple cattle farms. As some would say (that would be Bob), the route Lesley took us on was genius.  Truly, another great day on two wheels.     Steve
