happy trails....till we meet again....

Completed the first leg of my triple-redundant journey home about 30 minutes ago. (That means I'm home.) Pushed hard, rode MUCH more e-way than I like and paid for the high speeds with MPG -- I consistently hit reserve at the 125 mile mark. Not a fun day at all.

Still in all, it was well worth it to spend time with you folks again. Wish we could make it longer!

On edit: Pete & JoAnn made it home safely by 2 PM.

Yes, we got in around 2pm. Had to unpack, mow grass, get groceries, update Fantasy Football site, and eat.

Un-eventful ride up... we did ride into about 15 seconds of rain just north of Marietta Ohio.

All-in-all was a grand time with great people. Hope next year to be back for the fun and festivities.

ptgb, you make me feel bad, I unpacked, ate, and took a nap

thebabbster · 10-10-2010, 06:40 PM

I also wanted to say a big thank you to adlowe and rickbb for taking the lead on two great rides on friday and saturday, and for their hard work on planning the ECR this year, you guys are the best!!

I got in about 4:00 after a nice ride on the BRP. I want to add my thanks to Art for putting this weekend together. And of course thanks to Rick for giving us a chance to practice our off-road riding. I will see you all next year and hopefully earlier.

Made it in around 5:30 or so.

Would write more, but Dexter is about to start.

Well I didn't leave Hillsville until 11:30am pulled into Chadds Ford Pa. (about 20 miles from my house) around 7:30 and had a leisurely dinner. Four Hundred and fifty miles in 8 hours flat, a personal best for me. Glad all the Virginia troopers were on I77 cause I wicked it up as traffic would allow. I got to use the heated gear, got pretty cold riding after sundown. I got to use the headlights more than I wanted also. What I get for standing around jawing all morning. I'm blaming Rick and Jo.

I had a great time, great rides, great booze and great people, what else could you ask for.

Going to go lay down in bed and watch the Eagles play. Later babies.
