The DBA TDay Ride Report

[James]

I'd like to thank everyone that came out to the first ever DBA ride, I had the honor to meet most of you guys. And I'd also like to thank everyone for the hospitality you guys showed this Hoosier, Especially the Racks, not everyone would let a stranger from 2K miles away, come live with them for a week. Thanks

Me walking into the airport at 4am EST, haven't been up this earlier since who knows when. Is it still considered "up" when you don't even go to sleep?

Honestly, I think the geek is hunkered down in the motor home with the heater blazing. Looking at the weather, it is cold and windy. That just cuts right through you no matter how many layers you wear or have. ​

Freeze Warning
Wind Advisory
Hazardous Weather Outlook​

Today: A 20 percent chance of rain after 10am. Mostly sunny, with a high near 54. Breezy, with a west southwest wind 8 to 11 mph increasing to between 25 and 28 mph. Winds could gust as high as 39 mph.

1st stop - ICE
2nd stop - get pins removed from gmans arm and a new cast
3rd stop - FAT to pick up "short stack" as cda likes to call him
