September 22, 2012 - SPCA Lakeland

Five motorcycling friends (Bill, Eddie, Robert, Carl and I) .met for breakfast in Plant City, FL this morning.  Missing from the group was our good friend, Boyd, who was otherwise occupied with duties at the S.P.C.A. Lakeland. You see, Boyd is the Director of Veterinary Medicine there and today was the Grand Opening of the new addition to the S.P.C.A.'s veterinary clinic.

After breakfast was over, we drove over to the new facility in south Lakeland to join Boyd in the celebration.

On the way home, we made a quick stop at Fun Bike Center where we looked at a used Triumph Rocket III.  No, I did not buy it, but it sure was impressive.  Take a look at this video.

Next week we will be back on the bikes.  Come and join us if you are in the Plant City area.  Until then,

RIDE WITH PRIDE
