Jamie has to work her store until 6 and I can't find anyone to watch Aidan after school yet.  If I can't leave until 7pm I'm not thrilled about dodging deer in the woods at midnight.  I'll consider leaving uber early in the morning if I can catch up with the you late morning on your route.  As was asked a post or two ago..any idea what time you'll be heading out Saturday morning?

Home sweet home.

No Taj Ma Tent?

Honestly, it depends on when everyone gets here.  If Scott and Dave are late night arrivals, I can't see getting out of camp before 10AM.  FYI, if you come looking for us, campsite 112.  Top of the hill, turn hard left and look for the showers on the right.  I'm on the left in the pictured tent.

Today has been fun so far.  Rode down near Portsmouth, the zigzagged my way NE back to the park.

Carla and me saw Bender and Shadowfox at Cabelas in Dundee. They were in route.

They made it about 11:30 last night.  Scott has heater envy.

Looks like you guys will have a nice ride home.  And a bad ride is still better than no ride    I hope you guys had a great time.

 Well, I'm two for two.    it's pouring just like the Su Casa ride.

Iron Pony FTW!  I will be making a second trip there.  Got my Gerbing G3s and a balaclava to ward off the chill.  The place is huge and I had tear myself away from the clearance section.  Jackets for $29?  Boots for $44!

I have been buying from Ironpony for years.  They have great prices.

Home again.  Last saw Bender on his way west on I-96.  Scott dropped off at his place and I was last.  555 is a lot of fun.  The Daytona caught a little air under both wheels coming over one of the last large hills.    All in all, great trip, no casualties, no scares and good company.

Home, unpacked...and just finished a lerge plate of lasagna..

Had a great time... well worth the trip..

Ok..the second night..even though it was pouring rain out was MUCH nicer after we stopped at Wally World and I picked myself up a nice little ceramic heater like Bender's.  Since I spent the first night with my tent wedged between Sleazy's and Bender's with their heaters humming away all night while I FROZE MY ASS OFF thinking of them all toasty and comfy right next door... night two was a HUGE improvement    

Saturday the weather was great for riding the 555 until dinner time when the rain started.  Iron Pony was awesome as Tom mentioned, knowledgeable staff and a huge selection of stuff.  Picked up a nice jacket for my 7 year old son, a new controller for my vest and some awesome Gortex lined Olympia gloves for the remainder of the ride home.  I see many day trips with Sleazy in my future..let's see, baloney sandwich for lunch at G&R in Waldo then Iron Pony and home  

Overall a successful and fun trip.
