Will explain later in the story the rather unusual title. But first today's Ride.
We did 155 miles today, dodged most of the mind numbing heat, until Shalimar. There spontaneous Ignition became something to worry about. Tim W led todays ride, a superb mix of routes with some new outstanding roads mixed with old favorites.
Six Sandies got up to beat the heat and it was pleasant this morning. Bobby B would fall back to have twisty road fun. Sometimes he would disappear completely. Which caused Sam to start hunting the young Bennet boy and like a bad penny, viola, Bobby appears. Must thank Joejoe today he waited on the corner to make sure we saw the upcoming turn, thank you sir. The Sandies over the years have perfected to a degree, Group Riding. Our procedures and policies have come from our millions of miles riding as a group. They are a distillation of a lot of knowledge from some very very experienced Riders.
Breakfast today was at “Panhandle Market and Restaurant “ a Tim discovery. Tim knows food stops not towns, like Jimmy Durante used to say “I gotta million of them “. The Market sells ice cream from “Southern Craft Creamery”. The title is just one of the flavors and boy howdy do they have some very eclectic flavors. Bacon Jam and Maple is another selection. They also sell milk in glass bottles with the cream in some of the bottles.
The Creamery is in Marianna we can also stop at Ocheesee Dairy which is close by. Can you say Sandie Creamery Road Trip, can you say yum. In the mean time I will organize an Ice Cream Foraging trip to PDL. Panhandle Market has a great breakfast , I think a lunch ride in cooler weather is definitely in order
Yes it got hot but we dodged the most of it, leaving early is the ticket.




Join us again as we enjoy good company and great roads.
Had fun. Thanks @twhiteinc for leading the way.
