Friday 10/19/18 Ride

Fellow Riders,

  • This Friday let’s head to the Flat Rock Wood Room for some lunch.  We can make our way up via Devil’s Fork and Tuxedo then scoot on home through Dupont SF and Ceasars Head SP.  If you would like to join us let’s plan to leave the Key Mart parking area about 10:30 AM this Friday.     Dan
  • Fall has definitely arrived and the cool temperatures were welcome.  Hard to believe only a few days ago it was in the 80's and felt like August with the humidity.  The temps and destination brought out a lot of riders for the ride.  Along with Dan were Rob, Pat, Bill, Len, Lincoln, Ray, Steve G., me, David, Gary, Lesley, Ed, and Neal.  The ride was very comfortable, although by the time we arrived, the cold was beginning to make its way through my leather.  Dan picked another great route through Pickens and Greenville counties as we made our way into North Carolina.  Len split off near Cleveland for some fuel, but fell right back in line as we started north on Hwy 25.  It's a good thing Sue called ahead as the restaurant was pretty crowded.  Many of us had to park around the side or back of the restaurant.  The food is always interesting and great here and today was no exception.  Barbecue in various forms was quite popular as we settled in for lunch in our own room set us just for us.  After lunch, a few riders took a more direct route home or headed off to take care of some errands.  Dan led the rest of us on a nice route past Dupont and Caesars Head and south on Hwy 276.  By the time we stopped for gas, the large group had dwindled to three.  Overall, it was another great day on two wheels.     Steve
