Title: 2nd Annual Start of Riding Season Flash Mob
Post by: jrobinson on February 06, 2017, 09:02:34 PM
You are invited to attend the BamaRides Start of Riding Season Flash Mob on Saturday, Feb 18, 2017. 

This is an informal get-together for Bamarides members. This is a family friendly event that you can bring your better half and/or the kids.

Bamarides will furnish hotdogs, burgers, chips and soft drinks.

There will be 4-5 people showing slideshows/videos of their riding, racing or touring adventures. If you have something, bring it and we'll throw it up on the big screen.

I'll be at The Station around noon,  lunch will be ready by 1pm. 

This will be at Valley 2 Fire Dept, 70 County Road 252, Trenton, Alabama.(25 miles east of Huntsville off Al Highway 65). We have a 40X50 area with heat, grill, restroom, tables, chairs and big screen TV.

Let me know a head count so we have enough food.

I think riding 12 of 16 days in the rain this summer made me HATE riding in it. I'm gonna have to work on that.

Thanks to Johnny and Sandy for putting this together!  Burgers, dogs, cake, pie ... everything was awesome!  Great to see everybody and enjoy some like-minded conversation for a few hours.  Nice day for a 150-mile loop also!

Good to see everyone today.  Thanks Johnny and Sandy for hosting, and continuing this new annual event for BamaRides!  Also thanks to Al and Melony and to Glen for the video/photo presentations.  An enjoyable day out despite the somewhat gloomy weather.

What a wonderful afternoon spent meeting so many of you, and enjoying fellowship and good food!  The videos and conversation were icing on the cake.

Thanks Johnny and Sandy for hosting today. Got to meet new members and see older members that I haven't seen in a while. We had a really good time.

Looks like a great time.  I hate that I missed it but I had made plans for that weekend months ago.  Maybe next year...
