I'm looking forward to seeing everybody this Sunday.

To change things up a bit this year, I am thinking that we should all leave together and go for a group ride.

Group ride leaves Viva Italia at 1:45 PM.

Great to see everyone out today, the weather was perfect and the food was fine. The only thing missing was a beer tent!

The ride after was fun, though it did get cut short. In addition to the black tape, zip ties, and some other bits and bobs I carry; I shall be including one or two bungee cords. One never knows when the welds on your spare tire carrier will fail! And scooting around with it between your knees is just awkward. I'm glad Jerry had one for me to use. Thank-you Jerry!!!

Thankfully, we have an accomplished group of riders in our club and everyone was able to dodge the bouncing tire. Thank the pot holes in our streets for everyone's quick reaction.

Yup David glad i was there for ya!!. I didn't mind the bouncing tire. I spend most of my time weaving around anyway. It was great to meet everyone today. Hope to see you all again soon. I still want to arrange a day like monday for a ride. I know some are unable to make the sunday rides. So lets make it happen. Suggestions for a route are welcome.
