that time of year...take off the covers if you haven't already, check the pressure in the tires, and join a few of us for the annual tip off to the new riding season. In the next few days, will decide where the lunch will be held...usual routine as usual, lunch and then a cruise///usually meeting sometime around noon with the day finishing around 4. Keeping fingers crossed The Weather Gods throw us a bone...otherwise we'll play it by ear. Hope to see some faces show up.

34 years if you don’t count the courtship. 30 years if you only count the happy days

hey Ed...good to see you posting...hope all is well...a pie run for me might turn into an overniter now...great reason to spend 2 full days in the saddle...only downside is Beez might show up...gotta take the bad w/the good I guess. Could see doing the shoo fly in May perhaps.

Kids are good, Mickey is talking to Theresa about living together. Theresa is in Yale New Haven for a stint and will probably go to the western part of Massachusetts for her next move. She also started her master’s studies this semester.
Everything is changing, everything is staying the same.

So, that is Holy Saturday... this might be doable as long as I get home in time for Easter Vigil Mass. Or maybe I go to the 7 AM the next day... We will see! Thank you mother nature!

Yep, at least it'll wash some of the salt and sand off the roads.

so looks like only a fool would be out riding tomorrow with 80% chance of rain...so even this fool is smart enough to just wait a week...so lets use the rain date card and move it to next saturday and hope the weather cooperates. Have a good weekend all.
