No I didn’t take any pictures. But I’m here to tell you that this ride certainly did happen! Jeff so eloquently stated that he was glad to be on Brick’s “Coming Out Ride”! I hadn’t really looked at it quite like that but I guess that’s what it was. AND damn did I ever love it! It has been way too damn long since I had ridden. All my health issues have been making me feel like I might never ride again! Lee however would have none of that! He put my bike back together after my heart attack crash and has been the major cheerleader in getting me back on a bike. Some of my injuries, it seems have made parts of me even more uncomfortable in the cold so days ago when I saw that it was supposed to be almost 70 degrees today I set my sights on riding today.
Lee rode over to my place at a few minutes after 9:00am and off we rode. It was only a couple of miles and I was just feeling sooo good. Really I can’t tell you how wonderful it felt to be back on a bike! I think this was the best medicine I could ever get!
Bob, Scott and Jeff were at the Halfway Hardware when we arrived. Also there was Gary Lackey, D Jones and they introduced me to another young man whose name escapes me right now. Those three had a different destination but wanted to see me back on a bike again. I really appreciate that! The five of us had a super ride down to Lake Lure. The lunch spot left a bit to be desired but it really didn’t matter to me because I was still on cloud 9 because I was out riding again! After lunch we rode the rest of the gps route that Lee had prepared for this ride. We ended at the Halfway Hardware again where after kicking tires and wishing each other the happiest of holidays we rode off in different directions. It’s now almost 11:00pm and I still have this goofy grin on my face!
Thanks to a wonderful ride and some really special friends!
Thank You!
I really love All Y’all!
