Title: New Year's Day ride Post by: scott_araujo on December 07, 2014, 08:57:34 AM So after weeks of it being unseasonably cold, I've heard we're supposed to have a warmer than usual December. Let's start planning the annual New Year's Day ride! Same as usual, road conditions permitting we meet at MotoCorsa, probably not too early, do as long a ride as the cold allows comfortably, then get together for some food and coffee. If we go by past rides, the coffee session usually lasts much longer than the ride :)
So far only Krolik and I have attended, and even he didn't make it one year. Of course if the roads are too slick to be safe or the weather is especially inhospitable we can still just meet for brunch and coffee. And no problem just meeting for the brunch part if the cold ride is not your thing. All are welcome, no bike brands excluded. Do any of us beside Victor even own a Ducati any more?

How long have we been doing this? Will this be the fourth year? Scott Title: Re: New Year's Day ride Post by: krolik on December 12, 2014, 07:10:05 PM 4 or 5

Title: Re: New Year's Day ride Post by: krolik on December 28, 2014, 02:12:55 PM Forecast to be sunny & 34 degrees on New Years Day. Looks like another NYDR wishing for heated grips.
Title: Re: New Year's Day ride Post by: scott_araujo on December 29, 2014, 06:31:50 PM My forecast says 40, but in sure that's not at 11am. Oh well, clear and sunny ain't bad.

Scott Title: Re: New Year's Day ride Post by: scott_araujo on December 31, 2014, 07:08:58 AM Just checking the weather. It should be all the way up to freezing by 10am tomorrow :)
So, gather at MotoCorsa at 11, ride til we can't feel our fingers, then get lunch? Where should we go for lunch? Scott Title: Re: New Year's Day ride Post by: scott_araujo on January 01, 2015, 11:27:44 AM Looks like just me again :(
