- I think a breakfast ride to the Sports Page Sandwich Shoppe in Highlands, NC, sounds like a good idea. It's a little over the one hour target, but it's always a nice ride up the mountain. The morning looks good, and depending how the forecast is after we eat can determine whether we can take a longer route home. If that sounds good to you, we'll plan on leaving at 8:30 am. Hope to see you there. Steve
- The Friday morning ride today seemed like a good idea to 6 riders including me. Those coming out for the trip along with me were Lesley, Len, Rob, Steve G., and Bill (delivering the newest edition of Full Throttle Magazine with an article he wrote about the recent HTS motorcycle escort, page 46, and another article he wrote about a waterfall ride, page 44.) There was a change to the planned destination. In double checking this morning, my Google search indicated the Sports Page was closed permanently. I called and got no answer, so the alternative was a favorite in Cashiers - Zookeepers Bistro. With a call ahead by Paulette, I knew they would be ready for us. When we arrived, I was concerned that another favorite had closed as there were only a couple of cars in the parking lot. Fortunately, they weren't closed and with only six, we got the big round table in the corner. We got our coffee right away and then studied the menu for our food orders. I'm always impressed that the server uses an iPad to take the orders. With few customers on site, we got our food fairly quickly and it was good and hot. After a leisurely breakfast, most of us headed east on Hwy 64 for a nice winding route home. We went through Rosmann and were hit with a very brief rain shower, but quickly rode through it. OG Bob would have been disappointed as there was not enough rain to wash his bike. The skies were a mix of blue and some darkening clouds as we made it home. It was a small group, but still another great day on two wheels. Steve
