Valentine’s Weekend Ride

February 18, 2009

Ok so, it’s been a while since I’ve posted a nice long trip, so here it goes. This past weekend was a long one with Valentines on Saturday and President’s Day on Monday. My wife & I who had originally planned on having a nice romantic dinner decided to skip the norm and head out on the road. (You gotta love a woman who prefers riding over flowers & chocolates..)

The plan was to head down to the Keys with my wife’s family on Friday and stay till Sunday afternoon. While the family rode in the motor home, my wife and I were going to follow on the bike, so Friday night after work we packed our Tourmaster bag and strapped it on to the bike, but just when we were getting ready to leave, my sister-in-law called to say that they weren’t going to leave till Saturday morning. With the bike all ready to go we decided to ride out to The Pit Bar B Que where a friend of us was DJing. Just as we got there my sister-in law called again saying that they had changed their mind and were going to leave that night after-all. By now it was about 8pm and a heavy fog was setting in, so we decided to wait till the next morning to leave. Besides, “The Pit “was jumping and everyone was having a really good time. As it turned out some of our rider friends that were there had made plans to ride down to the Keys the next day, so we decided to head down with them.
