This place has turned into a ghost town

Wish I could but I work Sat's.

Yo Joe!

Sorry I missed riding with ya today. We road over to Eastern Shore HD....very sad thing. I know some of the people that work there. A few will go to Mobile but a number of them are getting laid off...very sad. Then I rode up to Bay Minette to that little bike shop downtown called "The Motorcycle Shop". Found out on FB that they were having a customer appreciate day with...you guessed it...free food! They had a complete Tday dinner there. Ran in to a couple forum people there! I wanted to go over to Pcola then as that Huals bike shop was having an observation run and shin dig....but..instead was forced to do one of the few things that I hate worse than a root canal....shopping at Walmart with Debi. Then home to walk dogs and feed horses. Hope u had a good ride...started out pretty cold but warmed up nice for a little while.

I worked

It was a good ride. I meet the Group at the Bay Minette exit. We were then, 20 bikes heading to Monroeville. Once there, we meet up with probably another 30 bikes. They were individuals and some from another motorcycle club. Sons of Armagedon. (I've never heard of them). After PFC Hunter arriving at the airport and a ceremony, we led a Hero's procession into town, around the courthouse square and back to the airport. It was really uplifting to see the numbers that turned out for such a small town. By the time we returned back to the airport, the sun had already dropped below the trees. I kept going. It got cold between there and Atmore. I stoped at a gas station in Atmore to warm up and to make some adjustments for the last 75 mile run back to the barn. Fortunatley once I got back into Mobile county the temp was warmer. In all, it was a great day for my first Patriot Guard ride.

BTW, I see why some of you are not to keen on group rides. With just 20 bikes, we slingshotted all the way to Monroeville. That's why when the ride event was over I took off. I bought my RK for one of many good (to me) reasons. CRUISE CONTROL! And, I was ready to get home!

That's the trouble with most group rides....no consistent speed up front and then there are those that will roll then coast... Glad y'all had such a good turnout! It's awesome to do those feel good missions!!

Bought the family business and ditched the old 6 to 5. Always playing catch up.

Road the other day and broke the throttle cable so waiting on a new one.

You have another bike? Awwwwwwesome!!

Phantom what kind of business are you in now.
