We had a good turn out for this weekends ride in spite of the fog. Twenty five bikes and I think about 30 riders & their passengers.
Steve & I lead the two groups we divided into.
The girls are shopping the Sunday adds while we wait to ride out!
A little fog isn’t stopping us!
We took 46 West to 46A, then East on 44 to Deland. Then we skirted Deland on the scenic Grand Ave. That’s a nice rolling ride under a canopy. Up CR-3, West on 40, & then we cut up the corners on Emporia RD. Crossed 17 to do the Shaw Lake loop thru the fern farms. Then we jump on 17 to catch the Raulerson/Brownie RD loop. This was freshly paved and the curves around Cow pond were sweet! Then North into Crescent City for lunch!
We’re here!
The food was fantastic!
3 Bananas is popular with everyone!
Our LEO escort!
Hey! Where’s the BMW Motorcycles of Orlando t-shirt?
Time to gear up and continue the ride!
We passed the North East guys coming in as we were leaving. I guess they didn’t know that we were eating at 3 Bananas too. It was funny seeing all the double takes on our way out. They must have wondered why all the BMW’s were leaving!
We headed West on 308 and saw someone having a blast doing stunts in a small prop plane! It was at low altitude, so we had a good view as we rode past. North on 309, East on 308B, cross 17, and then the Sisco Rd loop around Lake Broward. New pavement and lots of curves under the trees here! North on 17, South on 309, over on Georgetown Denver Rd, and South on Old 17. We jumped on 17 to CR-3, did the Blackburn loop, back on CR-3 we opened it up a bit! Back into Deland and stopped for gas at the Citco at 44 & Grand. Then finished the day coming back to 46 around 3pm.
Thanks to everyone for attending such a neat ride!
