Friday 5/1/15 Couples Ride

Fellow Riders,

  • This note is early because, as many of you know, we will be on a couples motorcycle trip most of this week, our friends from Atlanta included.  Sue and I plan to escort them part way back by including them into our Friday Ride and have lunch at the Attic Restaurant in Clarkesville.  After lunch the Atlanta couple can continue on their way and we will return to Salem with whomever decides to join us.  Therefore, as a departure from normal, we are inviting couples to join us, since a few of the ladies have already expressed an interest in going.  Of course, as always, if you wish to ride alone, I always enjoy the camaraderie.  Friday looks OK at this early date, however, we will be going rain or shine.  If you would like to join us let’s plan to leave the Key Mart parking area about 10:30 am this Friday.  Hope you can make it.    Dan
  • Ten bikes with 17 riders made the trip via another of Dan's outstanding routes to The Attic in Clarksville, GA.  The weather was very cooperative and the ride was scenic as we made our way into Georgia.  It was very impressive that 6 of the riders had just returned from a three day visit to Savannah, and rode some more on Friday.  The couples were Dan & Sue, Len & Pat, Steve & Eva, Steve & Carla, Steve & Paulette, (way too many Steve's...), Dave & Pam (first time riders), Jim & Colleen, and solo riders Lesley, Bill G, and Bob.  The food is always good at The Attic, but service tends to be a little slow, especially with 17 at the table.  They had a place set up for us and the slow service gave everyone more time to talk and get aquainted. Everyone bid farewell to Steve and Eva as they made their way back to Atlanta, while the rest of us were on the road back to Keowee Key and other places nearby.  It was another great day on two wheels, with the added bonus of many spouses coming along.   Steve
