Greetings to All!

It is great to be home! We completed our Fall adventure in late October, just in time for Carl’s Vanilla Bean Ride. It was a great turnout with a significant number of riders enjoying the temperate weather. Great work Carl!
Well, the colder temps are here and time to break out the heated gear. Wore mine the other day and it was toasty! Also, time to check tire pressures and inflate with some winter air to offset the colder temperatures. Mine had dropped about 6 pounds during my absence.
I’ve included some musings on our Western trip. Hope you enjoy.
Our meeting is Monday, 10 November at the Carriage Inn. Hope to see you there.
Trivia question: What famous birthday is on 10 November?
Secretary,
