Lights, Lots O' Lights

11 Sandies filled up with food rode through Northgate to see the fantastic lights. Had a new couple join The Sandies and ride with the Sandies and didn’t ask for their money back ! This was even after meeting Sandy S and Tony G they stayed anyway. I’m  pleased to have all of you meet Harold ( Smurf) and Karen Williams.

Harold and Kim ride a very pretty Harley Tri-glide, nice to have you aboard. We left Golden Corral meeting Tony and Nikki G out in the parking lot. JoeJoe forgot his camera and still took some great pictures via IPhone. Speaking of pictures Sandy S took a bunch, some came out blurry, Christmas magic ?

While on the ride through Northgate we were warned there was a black bear ahead. Tony an Nikki,  who live in a neighborhood that has a large bear infestation were pretty casual so I pretended to be also.  Well think about it, I’m in front so where is Mr. or Mrs. Bear  and I’m not doing a gender check by the way. So who do you think they would be PO at for interrupting dinner ?  Huh ? Yep me, certainly not Sandy back there waving arms and hollering  “Here Bear, look this way, need a picture, yoo hoo”.  So I proceeded cautiously, trying to ignore the noise behind me.  Thankfully Tommy N was Sheepdoging it that night so I knew we were in good hands, in spite of the interruptions  from the peanut gallery.

Have you noticed we don’t have just ordinary rides ? Most have some kind of excitement happening along the way. In spite of the excitement we had a great ride. We all  enjoyed some beautiful light displays it was a very pleasant night with good friends.

Next event is The Last Ride of The Year, put on by The Iron Butt Association. It’s open to everyone and it’s in Stockton AL. We have quite a few members of The Iron Butt association  here in The Sandies by the way. We leave GTD Monday at 8:30 am heading west .

Here’s Hoping everyone has a great Christmas !!!!!
