No pony ride today…

I slept in this morning. Joe checked in on his way back from the beach, and we tentatively planned on riding when he got back to Raleigh depending on how the weather held out. It didn’t, so we planned our evening instead, deciding on Dakota Grill for dinner, and then heading to Flex, early enough … Read more

Back on the chrome pony…

Robert set out for work just after 7AM. I got up at 9, and checked in with Joe shortly thereafter. We both agreed that the weather this morning was not conducive to riding, so bagged that idea. The weather improved as the day went along, so at about 3:25, I set out for a ride. … Read more

Dancing and a trip report…

We met for breakfast, and were, unfortunately, quickly joined by Todd, so I was unable to get the … Read more

Since I couldn’t figure out how to set the alarm in my room (actually, I think it just doesn’t work), Joe called me at 10:00, so that we could meet in the lobby, where breakfast is available from 8AM until 11AM. Joe got there before I did, and warned me outside before I went in, … Read more
