The only organized ride that I know of for the area is the Bikers for babies ride on Sunday 10/12 that starts/ends at the Verizon amphitheater. The (small) group that I ride with will be doing a ride to Hanibal, Mo on either the 19th or the 26th. That's still up in the air!

I was going to take a ride down to the lake that weekend. It should be nice with the Fall colors.

I'm still around and I'm out in Washington, MO. But my riding is over for this year because of some medical problems. But I will be back by next Spring. I'll be looking to hook up with some of you all then!

Rode in a Vets poker run last week. Haven't seen anything coming up down here in SE Missouri in the near future. Time to go it alone while the weather is still great. Should be able to ride until mid to late December.

I didn't know about the Bikers for Babies run until it I saw it mentioned on the news after it was over.

I ended up riding into Illinois up the river road this past week.

Were cops still pulling bikes over for "safety checks" on the Great River Road or did they meet their quota?
