Spirit of Liberty Poker Run

Sweetie and I rode in the Spirit of Liberty Poker Run, Patterson, yesterday. As usual, the poker run was not handled correctly. The ones in Florida were so much more professional. Again, the organizers started too late in the day and made the bikes run in a pack at 70 mph. That's not very much fun, nor is it safe riding conditions. Since we knew the route, some of us took off ahead of the pack and poked along at a comfortable speed and just met everyone else at the designated areas. Also, the air was typical SE Georgia June temperature: hot and nasty. But, even with all that against it, we're still glad we rode. Even a bad day riding is better than no ride at all! That Suzuki is one sweet handling machine.


I forgot to add a photo of what I bought from a local vendor, Omi's Art, at the Spirit of Liberty. First we scooted home and traded our 2 wheels for 4 wheels. Glad we did! Check out my purchase below. It is lovely, isn't it? It now resides on our front porch. I'm hoping the Carolina Wren's will like it and decide to live there.



Ride safe y'all!
Sparky :o)
