Last (Big) Ride of the Year tomorrow (Thursday)

Tomorrow is the 25th annual Last (Big) Ride of the Year. It's an annual RTE to Stockton, AL started by some of the IBA guys, but has evolved into a more inclusive event. Show up at the Stagecoach Cafe for lunch and hang in the parking lot to ogle the bikes and see old friends. I know there'll be some MSTA guys there, and I want to be there. Alas, I find myself with an opportunity to earn a few shekels which will go towards a week's worth of camping and riding next summer. But with a relatively warm ride down for the 25th iteration of the ride, I know I'll be kicking myself for not passing on the work call.

I've gone 4 or 5 years and it's usually a good time. I had nearby hotel reservations for this year but as the date got closer so did the uptick of Covid so I decided to cancel. With the weather like it is, it looks like a great year to ride, unlike some past years when it was in the low 40's and rain! -JEP-
