We were six for breakfast this morning: Bill & Mercy, Robert, J.T., Eddie & myself. Afterward, four of us bundled up for our ride while Mercy & Robert headed for home. We turned northwest towards San Antonio to ride some of our favorite roads, including Jessamine, Powell, Hayman, Bayhead and Bellamy Brothers.
We then headed back to San Antonio intending to have lunch at Pancho's Villa. Unfortunately, the crowd waiting to get into this popular restaurant overflowed out onto the street. Deciding we were not that hungry after all, three of us headed for Performance Honda while Bill headed back to Plant City mumbling something about *&^%$# taxes. Arriving at Curley Road & SR-54 we found extremely heavy traffic. Soon thereafter, J.T. decided he had better things to do and headed home while Eddie and I persevered. Finding nothing at Performance that we could not live without, Eddie and I headed to Land O' Lakes for lunch at Hungry Harry's. While the food there is normally excellent, the cook must have been having an off day leaving Eddie and I both disappointed.
After lunch we decided not to subject ourselves to the traffic on SR-54 again. So, we headed north on 41 to pickup Ehren Cutoff Road which took us back to SR-52. We then headed for home via SR-52, Old Lakeland, Chancey & SR-39.
Although the day started very cool, some might even say cold, we had a great ride over some very nice roads, travelling about 160 miles. Come out and join us next time.
