- This Friday I am hoping to ride up to the Cupboard Café near Dillard, GA for some lunch before a wildfire burns the place down. If you would like to join me, and we don’t get smoked out, let’s plan to leave the Key Mart parking area about 10:30 am this Friday. Hope you can make it. Dan
- It was great summer/fall day in the Upstate. Twelve riders came out to take advantage of another perfect day for a ride. Along with Dan were Gadget, Len, David, Gary, me, Pat, Bill, Kevin, Ken, OG Bob, and Ed. Dan picked another great route and avoided the smoke as we made our way toward Dillard by way of Clayton. I got a little nervous when I saw Dan turning at the hospital sign, but it turns out it was a spectacular road that wound around the mountain. The road was full of curves, colors, and some wide open valleys. I'm glad people seeking curvy roads head for the Dragon and leave this kind of road for us. When we arrived at The Cupboard Café, as expected, Sue had called and some tables were ready for us. It seems to happen a lot, but the tables were in a room just for us. The server took our drink and food orders and we got our food fairly quick. My recollection is that they have been slow on previous visits, but not this time. Breakfast choices were popular as well as some Mexican options. You can see from the photo below, an un-named rider went all out for a burrito that exceeded his expectations, but he was undaunted. The ride home was a more direct route and we did see a lot of colors. I'm not sure how many more days like this we'll be seeing, but it was fun to have another great day on two wheels. Steve
