Hi Andy and all,
Good to see you again! "Got wet getting there" is an understatement! Six
hours of steady downpour with temps in the low 50s made Friday rather
unpleasant (I've got to find some truly waterproof riding gloves). The
sunshine finally came out at the NY border and Saturday was very nice.
Sunday's morning drizzle gave way to sunshine near Warren, PA and it
stayed that way until near Somerset, PA. Then after just a brief shower,
it was dry once again (but looked like it could rain any time). In all
750 miles for the weekend with the old Ambo running flawlessly as usual.
Good to see Bill and his copper colored Eldo again, meet Gil and check
out his Eldo and especially meet Frank with his very yellow Eldo. Hope
to post this one as "Loop of the Month" soon.
Get one of your Loops on the road Andy, and you won't have to get the
sportbike kinks out! See ya' somewhere, sometime down the road. Cheers,
