Ride #2 / Sunday, April 29th 2007

Here are the photos from 29 April '07 ride to Davis Junction.

Yesterdays ride is "in the books" and here is a re-cap.
 
Meeting at McDonald's were: Rocky Dobek.....racking up more riding miles with the club than Chris. Dennis Wegner, Rick Morales, Rich Remnes, John Tolomeo, Joe McGuire, Art Steinmeier and friend Bonnie, Lenny Rutka, Quan Ngugent and wife Carla.....and friend Masoud, Herbert Betancourt and wife Lissett,  John Andrews and friend Barbara, Joe Celovsky...The Road Captain
 
We set off at 0905 hrs. hit the Toll Road North and sailed easily to our 1st. break at the Belvedere Oasis. There we were met by my favorite "WingMan" Joe Giammona. A short break and then another 30 minute ride AND ONE WRONG TURN later we were at our destination. A wood carvers home near Davis Junction. You have to see it to believe it. Life size statues of Eagles, Bears, other assorted animals, and the story of Christ with over 100 life sized carved figures. Though I'm not religious, I was impressed.
 
After spending about 45 minutes there we left to ride back roads to Dekalb.  En route guest Masouds' bike broke down and, after 40 minutes of wrench turning,  a tow truck summoned. Joe McGuire stayed behind with Masoud while the rest of us traveled on to Dekalb. After the tow truck hauled the bike & rider away Joe met up with us at the restaurant in DeKalb. Joe, that was a "stand-up" thing you did for a stranger.
 
Art and friend Bonnie arrive for the ride
Gee, I never noticed that Art was in the photo. I wonder why?
A quick cup of "senior discount" coffee before we head out. Rick, what's in YOUR cup?
are we a riding club, or a TALKING club?
1st. pit stop at the Belvedere Oasis
Joey G, my favorite "Wing Man" met up with us at the Oasis
great shot of Bonnie taking a photo of me taking a photo of her 
Barbara and Rich. Maybe Barb kept her helmet on to tune out Rich 
Lenny resting his bones
Joe, be careful. You break it , you buy it......$13,000 statue
we arrive at the secret destination
John Andrews & Barbara relax near the bear den 
Joe camel? wasn't that a smoking ad?
Oh sure, one wrong turn and look what they do to me

Ride #1 / Sunday, April 22nd 2007

Well, the 1st. official BKILXI ride is history. The Sunday, Apr.22nd. ride took us out to Carrs' in Mazon. Making the ride were: Dennis Wegner, John Andrews, Jerry Bodzioch, Mike Fratto, Rick Morales, Rocky Dobek, and Joe, the Road Captain. Several new roads were ridden, just to keep the ride fresh and interesting. Great timing got us out to Carrs', and our food served, just before the crowd started to arrive.

  The ride lasted 2:45 hr. out, 1 hr. for lunch, and 2 hrs. back, getting us home around 1500 hrs. with a total distance of 160 miles ridden
