HRCA - August Ride
The Wesley Chapel chapter of the Honda Riders Club - "The Holeshots" took place on Sunday, August 17th. Meeting at 10am at Performance Honda, the ride would take us to Inverness over the back roads of central Florida. A mere 60 miles, the ride took almost three hours. A break after the first thirty miles was a hydration break. The temps were HOT!
Twenty seven motorcycles of various types formed two groups as we headed out. I was hiding in the corner. The lime green shirt gave me away!
There were actually a few twisties along the route and after the rest stop at Hess, we continued on to the Cove restaurant in Inverness. A nice burger, some good conversation, and air conditioning. Not sure which was best....
Looks like I'm holding court at the head of the table. Hmmm...hope that doesn't mean that I have to pick up the check.
After spending an hour at the Cove, I headed back to Riverview. Needing to get back quickly, I took the more direct route on I-75. It was 91 miles of slab. No scenery but the time savings was a necessity.
Not sure where the September ride will be but it's a plan. Two more rides and I get a T-shirt!!!
