We will hit the Parkway then on to a Restaurant where we can get a traditional late lunch of News Years Fare. You know, Greens, Black eye peas, Etc. or anything of your choice. |

It's a tradition. Start the New Year and the new riding season off with a ride. The Story is: that what you do on the first day of the year is what you do for the rest of the year. Sounds like a plan to me. Ride and have fun. We will meet at the Dealership and leave at 11:00 am. Super cold - Short Ride, Kind of warm, say around 50 degrees - longer ride. We will hit the Parkway then on to a Restaurant where we can get a traditional late lunch of News Years Fare. You know, Greens, Black eye peas, Etc. or anything of your choice. |
