The Happy Gilmore's at 7-Eleven

Early morning meet up for the Jersey crew.

Breakfast at Rhodes Tavern in Sloatsburg before riding up to the
official meeting point.

Very motorcycle friendly establishment. Rhodes even supplied
kickstand pads, but maybe not so friendly to all riders.

Anthony & Rick

The guys from New Jersey heading to Annesville Circle.

Considering Joe didn't have a passenger this is a
well "aimed" photo taken overhead and backwards.

Welcome, our newest member Yvette

Yvette speaks to fellow rider Marie.
They both ride their own Harley's, no calling them "fender bunnies."

John don't do it this is a family channel!


Okay people enough fun and games lets get going.

Mounted up and ready to go.


Marie diving into the twisty's.

Rick heading up Rt. 9W north where we are soon to find out Rt. 218 is closed.
The road is closed to motorized vehicles on Sundays in July (open to bicycles).

 Quick maneuver back onto Rt. 9W to avoid the road closure.

Can't wait to get out of traffic and on those country roads!

About to ride under the metro north.

Now these are country roads.

Oops, wrong turn.

No problem quick U-turn we're back on track.

Now that's a cool mirror.

John says "don't suit up now we are having a wet t-shirt contest."

It's raining I'm going home!
Besides I don't carry rain gear.

We got to our first stop a few minutes after it started raining.
The rain past over and the rest of the day was perfect.

A big Thanks to the Deputy who helped use get through the intersection.

Welcome SCRC how cool is that?
Good catch Christine.

Gravel parking lots are no fun!

What rain gear it's a beautiful day!

Bill, Tom & Yvette

John & Dee
So the rain gave Dee a new hair style & it's a total 10!

Ready to leave after lunch Joe does his ritual  "a Pic with the waitress."
