A small part of the starting field for the ride shown above.
(L to R) Deanna, Rhonda, Rick, Kris, Jermaine, Melonie, John.
We did the local Toys for Tots run, second year for the club, first year for me.
We met up at Starbucks, and rode down to Walter Park to the start point. The bikes were still rolling in steadily a half hour after the official start time. There were four parking lots full of bikes!
This fellow with the cool mask was one of a few thousand others we rolled with to the Pasadena Fairgrounds.....
Here we are gathered at the end. The weather was good, even a little hot for a December ride. Probably around 75 degrees. The police support was great, they shut down all Northbound lanes of I-45 for us!
The food choices were somewhat lacking at the end, so we retired to a country restaraunt in Deer Park for eats afterward. There we were treated to a chance to check out "Mike the Bike", June's trike, which started life as a 750 Honda Shadow.
In all we ended up with four members and five guests at the ride, to finish off the 2007 club rides.
