THE FOLLOW UP
Once again, if you didn't go, you missed out on a great time last
Sunday. What, you may ask, could be so great about a day with fog so
thick that you could drown by riding with your mouth open? A Mystery
Ride!
Sunday at 0930 (fog delay), four machines of pure American Iron rolled
out into the mist bound for Sequals (on the mountain past Maniago). As
we descended upon that little town, and rolled into the square out of
the mist, what to our wondering eyes should appear but about 20 MORE
Harleys from our good friends the North Eagles.
After some good socializing and lies and a "quick" look at the map (it
was translated, but that didn't make it EASY!), we saddled up and
departed in pairs 3 minutes apart on a lovely Sunday ride (though by
that time there were about 30 Harleys!). We saw dirt roads, twisty
roads, traffic circles, bridges, underpasses and some of the most
beautiful scenery in Northern Italy, all followed by a great lunch at
the Edelweiss Restaurant with a great group of bikers.
My hat is off to Mike for convincing me to press on through the fog, and
to Paul, Cindy, and Jon for being stubborn enough to realize what a
great riding day it was.
