Fellow Riders,
- Due to some afternoon plans, I thought I would head to Mayberry's in Seneca for some breakfast. We'll head out for a ride afterwards and be home before noon. If this sounds good to you, we'll plan on leaving the Tate Realty Office parking lot at 8:30 am. Hope to see you there. Steve
- We had one of the larger groups we've had in quite awhile, a full dozen, today for the breakfast ride. Joining me on this pretty good day for a ride were Dan, Len, Charlie A., Ben, Terry, Neil, Pat, trikers Bill G. and Geno, and 4-wheelers Sammy (sadly, the Can-Am wouldn't start today), and emeritus-rider Ed. The trip into town was not bad, but we hit our first road construction stop on Keowee School Road. Mayberry's has a lot of seating available and there was no problem getting a seat for everyone. Sammy had taken the Hwy 130 route (with no construction delays) and was already having breakfast outside when we arrived. After the leisurely breakfast, Sammy and Ed each headed off for other errands and the rest of us made our way to Walhalla for a ride up the mountain. Bill and Pat peeled off in Walhalla to avoid the curves and the now smaller group trekked on up Hwy 28. After we crossed over to Hwy 107 via Village Creek Road, we got behind a very slow truck that wouldn't move over. Eventually, almost in to Cashiers, it did turn off. As we contiued east on Hwy 64 we started seeing signs for traffic delays, and they weren't kidding. We had about a 10 minute stop at one point before continuing on. The ride was great, but the slowdowns meant I was unable to meet my noon estimate to be home. Oh well, overall, it was still another great day on two wheels. Steve
