The last ride and more


Well I'm in the groove now about my rad treatment so I think posts will be more timely. Can it be true that we have been a club for over one year? Yep, and getting more members each month.
The following went on the ride: George, Richard, Drew, Buddy, Bill G, and Hugh. Riders earned ride points toward the Goddess award and the founders were all present. Thanks to George for planning the ride. There was lots to see on these new roads.
I sure hope everyone is keeping track of their points. Comment on this post to let me know how many points you have earned.
Jay Hopkins joined the club. He rides a red People 250. I sure hope he makes the next ride.

I'm planning the next ride on Sunday July 5th. If it goes well maybe the ride capt. will let me plan another one.
We will meet at Harrison Bay State Park @ 8AM. We'll ride up Harrison Bay road to Birchwood Pike where we turn right. We ride to Hwy 58. At that corner we take a left and ride just a short way to Career Lane. Turing right on Career Lane we ride to the four corners where this road meets Ooltewah Georgetown Rd. This is a gas and rest stop. Then we turn left onto Ooltewah Georgetown rd and head up to Hwy 60. This is a long flat road with good views and usually few cars.
At Hwy. 60 we make a left [ yep we're making a large square] and ride through the Hwy 60/Hwy 58 intersection.[We can stop at the gas station as needed]. Continuing on Hwy 60 we ride until we turn left onto Birchwood Pike, another scenic ride with farms and some big turns; but no sharp switchbacks. Finally we'll turn left onto Harrison Bay rd and end up back at the park.

So I hope you'll join us. There will be a rain date scheduled if there are real storms.

See you soon,
Shiftless Sister
