I want to see a lot of smiling faces for this ride.  Sunday looks to be a very pleasant weather day for us.  Thanks Jimbo, in advance for leading this ride.  Sooooooo....... looking forward to this ride.   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

I have a couple of old friends who might show up, so I will make sure I bring several ride waivers this time.   ;)

Like Jimbo says, it will be a relaxing ride on some beautiful back roads.  And remember, ride your own ride.  Not sure if I am bringing the Big Dog or the Raider, but I will be there.  Hope to see a lot of you too.

We are planning on being there.  Just got back at about 10:30p from riding around Mille Lacs and hiking and geocaching two state parks.  At 309 miles - sore and tired :-\ - gotta sleep ........ zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

A great ride today - thanks Jimbo!!  Only a few sprinkles here and there - no big deal.  A nice size group, thanks in part to our two guests AND our road captain bringing nearly his whole "famn damily".  Good to see you riding with us Deb, Carrie and Adam!   Eighteen bikes with 22 members from three chapters!  :) :)

Thanks to everyone for another great day of riding.  Only about 175 miles today for us but that makes nearly 500 for the weekend (not counting the miles hiked in the parks yesterday).

I will second that.....  Good job Jimbo.  Too bad you are getting so old that you forget where you park your Raider.   ;)  Always happy to see people from other Chapters too.  292 and 404. 

Glad to see all of the people on a Sunday ride.  The weather man blew it, but all in all, it was a great day.  I would rather it be a little chilly that the blistering heat we had at the beginning of the week.  Ok, now get down on your knees and pray to that God of yours for good weather for out MN STAR picnic on Sunday.  Should be a good time for all. 

Don't forget, Meeting this Saturday at Tousley's, 11:00am.  "Be there or be square."   8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

I had fun today and that is what it is all about.  Thanks.

This was my first "long" ride of the season, and, boy, it felt GOOD.  OK, the vets ride last weekend was long too, but most of it was in third gear.   I sure hope losing blue Raiders doesn't turn into an epidemic   :o

Weather wise the ride wasn't what was predicted, but it sure beat the day of the preride 102 degrees, just a few spritz yesterday didn't even get wet, I hope everyone had a great time, I know I did,
I will find the culprit that hide my bike and paybacks are Soooooooooooo sweet,  :o :o :o ;D ;D ;D
I will try and put together some more rides of the kind done yesterday with a destination in hopes that those that do not like the longer rides will join in on the fun, sorry about the two unplanned stops during the ride but sometines S&%t happens, I will still do the ride to Leather and lace, might be soon.

This was only my 2nd ride with the group but I had a great time, I will come on all that I can.

Jimbo are you going for the leather or the lace. maybe if you put some lace on your bike you would be able to find it easyer in the parking lots. You may also want to think about puting a gps locator on it.

Thanks again for the ride and doing such a nice job on my vest.
