Thanks to Murph, for throwing this together, a few of us Florida members had the chance to meet up and enjoy a nice ride in the Florida sunshine~ The weather held up great... no rain.. and it was plenty hot when not riding with the wind in our faces~
I'm really terrible at remembering who's who and what names go to what faces after the first meet, but I'll get better over time~ So forgive me.. and feel free to post up here who you are where I've missed~
I'm just gonna do attachments here, so bear with me as I post ho away...
Brenda, the wiff, and I left our place at 5:30am and met up with fmbeach (Glenn) in the Bradenton area around 7am...didn't get pics here, just a quick meet fuel up and then we were off to meet the rest of the gang~ We got there right at 9:30am and had some breakfast while meeting everyone else as they showed up... at the table is..

Then we headed outside for an after breakfast smoke and look over all the beautiful rides~

Hurricanes cap Duane and blue bandanna Randy, both from Moore Haven. Neither are members of the forum, but they love to ride. Wideglide 95th's riding buddies.

 

Murph's friend, Tony, is a Concealed Weapons Permit instructor...a shot of his front fender... gotta love it! Then he noticed the oil lines to my cooler were loose and blowing oil all over~ Before I could say "WTF", the man was on his back fixing my bike! I was blown away that this guy I had just met was right on top of my problem... too cool~ The next shot is my very first oil leak... I was so proud~

After breakfast we all top off the tanks again and then got some shots of the group in front of the water~ The lil' lady with the kid was there and one, or two, of the guys talked her into taking a group shot of us all~ Then we hit the road and found our next watering hole~

..then it was on the road again~ The last shot is with the big lake in the background~
We hit another Tiki Hut watering hole that was really nice, but I didn't get any shots there... hopefully someone else did~ It was a nice place on the water with a really good breeze~
That's all I've got~ I know my camera sux...I apologize for the pic quality~
Can't wait to do it all again sometime... HDF members rock! [sm=icon_rock.gif]

Thank ya, sir... good people right there, too~ [8D]

 

Great pics Bluedragon. Thanks for coming along. I know it was a long day for you guys. Maybe the next one can be in your area and you can pick the roads.

 

Great time by all, great bunch of guys andlady, been in Broward for the past 7 1/2 years and have a whole new perspective on Fla ( better, more comfortable than just Miami and Broward). Want to tank you guys. Murph and WG95th thanks for making this happen. Sure I will be seeing you again soon for another ride up there, going to bring the wife with me to show her your area, should remind her of home a little( Cane instead of Corn though). Ride safe in the mean time.
