Rescheduling the Loop
The thing about weather forecasts is that they are at best, estimates. The schedules meteorologists create for storms are followed no more closely than the ones I make for my wife. Ouch! So, when the front scheduled to finish through our area decided to linger in front of the mirror several extra hours we had to cancel our planned ride around the Lake Okeechobee. But all was not lost.
Any chance to see the dedication and common sense of the people I ride with is a pleasure to me. Personally, I got up early and entered a message to our meetup that the planned ride was scrapped due to conditions that were not favorable for a group ride. That done, I also met at the starting point to talk with anyone that showed. Four others actually came just to meet the people in the group. Leon rode his cage, which was probably smarter than the rest of us. Carl came on his Kawasaki Vulcan ( a bike that I see gaining popularity with many ), but couldn’t ride to a local breakfast location due to a commitment. We met Jody on her new Harley ( beautiful bike ) and Will was there with us. We talked for over 30 minutes and then broke up as three of us went to a local place for breakfast.
The ride, Looping the Lake, is rescheduled on the group already. We’ll hope for better weather next time and look forward to the picnic event this coming weekend.
