Another good turn out. Everyone met at McDonalds for 6 pm. Tonight, we had a special guest tonight when Ruth showed up for the ride. What a surprise to see her on her bike as it's been awhile since she's been on a ride with us. Also Mongo showed up although he wasn't coming on the ride he did come to say hi to everyone and pick up his Children's Wish Patch and the new Support Our Troops pin. Nice seeing you, Mongo.
On tonight's ride, there was Brewster, Chrissy, Needles, DD, Hooleo, BP, Professore, Kranky, Ruth, MrsEchoBay and EchoBay. MrsEchoBay and DD had a draw and Needles was the winner. Good for you Needles.
MrsEchoBay also gave out the new 032 member ID cards and Children's Wish patches to the members that had bought one. She also had some new Support Our Troops pins that some of the members bought to show their support for our troops.
When we were ready, we headed out to Gros Cap for a simple and easy ride. Once we all got there, we took some pictures and chatted for a bit. Just when we were ready to head back, Theresa, another chapter member showed up. We haven't seen Theresa for awhile either as she'd been really busy working but was going to try to get out for a ride with us.
We then headed over to the Boots & Saddles Roadhouse for something to eat. Kranky & Ruth didn't stop but kept riding straight home. After
having some good food, dessert and a few laughs, we all headed home.
Tonight's ride wasn't long but with darkness coming earlier each day, it was just long enough.
I was glad to see everyone that showed up tonight. We're just one big happy CMC family when we're all together. Good friends having good times doing what everyone likes to do - ride motorcycles and meet great people.

We'll
be heading to Chippawa Falls to take some cool pictures so we can put
them on the blog and then we'll head over to the Chippawa Restaurant for
something to eat. Maybe we can convince Dave to show us where the new trailer park is going to be or tell us where to catch that
BIG fish behind the restaurant.
The lake, the lighting and clouds were spectacular on this ride. Amazing! We never know what wonderful things our rides bring!
