June 16, 2012 - We Gather Once Again

This will be a very short entry as I am still without a motorcycle after accident on June 1st.  Do not fear, however.  The insurance company has come through.  New riding gear for me and replacement parts for the cycle have been ordered.  With luck, I will be riding again next weekend.

As for the rest of the group, nine of us gathered for breakfast at Snellgrove's Restaurant in Plant City for breakfast today.  The group included Bill, Boyd, J.T., Robert, Carl, Scott, Marlena, Eddie and myself.  We were happy to have Carl and Scott join us after long absences   We were especially glad that that busted up old provocateur, Eddie, sporting a neck brace to support his broken cervical vertebra could join us.  Heal quickly, my friend.

For a variety of reasons, only three of the group (J.T., Boyd & Scott) took advantage of the beautiful central Florida weather to ride today.  As I was not along to report on the ride, I invite one of the three to send me an account of the day's adventure.

Until next week,
RIDE WITH PRIDE

Update:  J.T. reported that he, Boyd and Scott had a 45 mile ride around eastern Hillsborough and western Polk Counties, with Scott dropping out after about 30 miles.  J.T. and Boyd eventually made it over to Fun Bike Center in Lakeland to take in their Fathers Day events.  They both took adantage of the sale prices to purchase new riding boots - Joe Rocket Sonic R's.

Boyd also got a sale priced oil change on his green monster.
