Friday 06/22/18 Ride

Fellow Riders,
  • How about we ride on over to Toccoa, GA for some breakfast at BJ’s Family Restaurant.  Hopefully we can miss the rain and some of the heat.  If it’s not raining let’s plan to leave the Key Mart parking area about 8:30 AM Friday.  Hope you can make it.     Dan

  • It was quite overcast this morning when a total of 10 riders met up at the Key Mart parking lot for a ride to Toccoa.  The riders coming along with Dan included me, Doug, Len, Steve G., Gary, Russ, Rob, Bill, Pat, and Ed.  Dan took us through Walhalla and we continued to meander southeast into Georgia.  The skies looked a little threatening, but as we got closer to our destination we started seeing the clouds break up and the blue southern sky appear.  BJ's, one of our favorite stops for breakfast or lunch, usually has a special place for us at the back of the joint, out of view of their other paying customers.  This time, we were seated in the main part of the restaurant, up front.  The server told us when she got the call from Sue (thanks Sue), she was so busy she thought some of us would be sitting in the bathrooms to have seat.  They got our coffee and water pretty quickly, and with the exception of my order, everyone was served in good time.  My omelet did eventually arrive and was good.  After our breakfast, Len headed out for some additional riding and Dan routed the rest of us back through Oconee County to find our way home. The weather turned out to be great - not too hot or humid.  It was another great day on two wheels.   Steve
