- The weather forecast seems to always be questionable on Fridays, so I am going to just go ahead and plan a ride, this Friday to the Clayton Café in Clayton, GA for some breakfast. If that works out we can ride back via Warwomen, which is always a nice ride. If the weather looks bad we can always chose not to ride or chose an alternate destination. Either way, let’s plan to leave the Key Mart parking area about 8:30 am this Friday. Hope it is nice and: Ride Safe. Dan
- After a little rain overnight, and still overcast skies, a gang of eight (no, not that Congressional gang) met at the Key Mart parking lot for a trip to Clayton. Those joining Dan for the ride included Lesley (visiting from Hilton Head), Len, Doug, me, Ray, Terry, and OG Bob. Dan led us through some familiar Oconee county roads as we made our way to Hwy 76. It was a very comfortable ride into Georgia with cooler temperatures and little traffic (except for a very slow logging truck) as we headed into Clayton. Parking was not much of a problem once we arrived at the Cafe. Most of us made a left turn to park on the opposite side of the street - parking precisely next to the signs forbidding left turns to park. Fortunately, the local constables must have been having breakfast somewhere else and we were not ticketed. Once in the restaurant, we were steered down a long hallway to the back of the restaurant where the bigger tables were located. Some of us thought we were being ushered out the back door, but it was actually perfect for our group (thanks Siri and Sue). Our server was very organized and brought our coffee and water, except no coffee for Len?? Soon our orders were taken and Ray was brave and tried the chicken waffles. A first for him. Turned out, they looked pretty good and he would order them again. The rest of us were more interested in eggs, other than you-know-who ordered his favorite French toast. We also learned that our server was from near Akron, OH, and she and OG Bob shared memories of coincidently living in the same town near Akron. After our leisurely breakfast Dan took most of us back via our favorite Warwoman Road, while a couple others took Hwy 76 for a slightly quicker route home. The rain stayed away and we got home before it got too hot. Overall, it was another great day on two wheels. Steve
