Ride Report June 27–Welcome Committee !

I had a hint that I might have someone or someone’s meeting me at the hotel when I ended my days run, but I got better than that. About 45-50 miles outside of Corydon, IN, I saw lights in my side mirrors that looked like motorcycles, so I fired up the camera. I expected to be overtaken by cyclist that I didn’t know, but instead I got buzzed by 3 motorcyclist that I knew. Below is what I saw buzz by me.

So I pulled in behind them and let them escort me into Corydon, IN. I must say that it was a total surprised and it was down right cool. Afterwards we went to dinner and then sat around a table outside the hotel and basically shot the bull for 5 to 6 hours. At 11:20pm, I finally gave up and told them I would see them in the morning. Thanks guys and I really appreciate the jester. It is something I will remember and tell stories about forever.

Thanks to John Cassarly, Doug Picard, and Gary Mace.

Tomorrow I will roll into Stephens City Va hopefully around 5-6pm. It’s been a fantastic trip.

  2. Thank you. I glad you enjoyed the blog. There were days after riding in adverse conditions that I just didn't really want to put the effort in, but I knew a lot of folks just wanted something. So I always tried to make the time. Work? Not so much! Sorry about Dixie! Still can't believe I lost her.
