Mid Fla RTE, Celibrating The End Of Summer, 9/22/12
« on: August 20, 2012, 04:06:18 PM »
It's time to celebrate the end of summer and the start of our nine month good riding season.

Official COG Calendar link:

http://www.cog-online.org/clubportal/EventDetail.cfm?clubID=1328&EventID=172236&mo=9&tDate={d%20%272012-09-20%27}#

Sparky's Place
24646 SR 40
Astor, FL. 32102
(352) 759-2854

Meet up time about 9:30 in the parking lot, will try to be seated at about 10.

An RSVP to me is strongly encouraged, thank you. It helps the restaurant provide us with a better experience.

This RTE is open to ALL, you do not have to be a member of anything to attend and have a good time. We will let you join COG, though.  :thumbs:

As per usual, any folks wanting to meet up at my house in Tavares for a pleasant, reasonably legal ;) ride up together, are welcome. I'll have the coffee on at about 8, with intended departure time of about 8:45. PLEASE RSVP. Folks needing my address, please ping me, or give me a call at 352 3four3 9ll7.

As mentioned, this will be the last breakfast RTE of the year, well, except for Bike Trailerfest, so come on out.

I do not know whether or not they take plastic, so plan accordingly.

Ride to eat, eat to ride.

Thanx.

Notice, I will be out of town from 9-2 through 9-15, inclusive. I may or may not have internet access, and will not be available at that phone number. I'll be out in California riding my KLR around. :P  :thumbs: :thumbs: And maybe doing some of this. :chugbeer: :chugbeer:


Later.

Did I forget something?

I had been waiting for the next one to come up .... but I have to work that day and I am not going to be able to take off. Maybe next time. Or ride toward Orlando next time and I will break away to meet you somewhere.
