15th annual Ride To The Rock-11/26/2016

[cota95]

I remember seeing 16° on the display the year I had to call George for a jump. Think it was even colder than that though.
Calendar marked and keeping my fingers crossed for this year.

Yeah, it doesn't go below 16. We did a camping trip a few years back the weekend after thanksgiving. We got up to heavy frost and temp indication of 16 on Sunday morning. It stayed 16 for a long time. I don't even know how cold it really was. I was quite warm on the bike, though.

You could qualify for the distance award.

What do I win???

A SECOND donut!!!!

Bump for the ride. The long range forecast is 75 degrees and sunny

There is no snow in the forecast...

IN!!

Don't tease us Bob if you don't mean it...

Since I didn't hear from Bob I have to assume that he will be unable to attend this years festivities.

I'm out for tomorrow. Got tied up with stuff today and along with the wet, drizzly weather didn't get motivated. I'd leave in the morning but think I'd miss the donuts.

When the sun breaks through I know I'll be kicking myself. Enjoy!

We'll miss you Mike-I will eat a donut in your honor.

All safe and sound back home. No rain but kind of cool, 42-46 most of the day until sun came out around 2 pm, then hit a whopping 49! All and all a very good ride enjoyed by 10 intrepid riders. Only bad part was that they pulled the Mayflower II away from the dock a couple of week ago and towed it to New London CT for rehab in anticipation of the 400 year anniversary of the voyage in a couple of year . We need a good photoshop person to put in a boat for the pictures (to follow as soon as have a coffee).

Glad you got it in. Skies cleared here nicely about 11 or so and I was hoping you got the same. Btw, flipping channels last night and the last thing I came across was some Nat Geo fly-over film of New England. They spent about ten minutes over the Plymouth waterfront. Of course they had a big brown boat to photograph.

It was a good ride. Had a hard time finding someone to take our picture at the photo op location because the boat was gone. Everyone was actually looking at the rock!

Turns out it was opening day for shotgun season for deer. Since I bought my license this year I decided sit in my hunting blind. Came up empty for now.
