Jeffk's Sunday 5/31 recap

Today was the best turnout of the year for the North Shore Wheelmen.

From memory the following were at Wheatley at 8 AM: Herb (first time this year and he rode STRONG), Dave (out from the city for the second week in a row), Jon (on his fixed gear Schwin: we do not know who suffers more: Jon on the bike or his bike riding companion. In any event, riding that fixed gear will only make Jon stronger - or break him!) Jon from Sands Point Golf Club (first time this year, but at his young age, his first ride is better than any of us on our 10th ride), Barry, Bob, Ori, Dave (from South Shore), Andy (first time this year and he is excited about his new bike arriving this Tuesday), Harold, Isaac (hope he made it on time to the Mets game), Joe, Paul, Amos.

MIA: Alan, (probably in training) Jeff (where has the head of the High Council been?), Arthur, Greg, Charlie (maybe still in China?) and Eddie.

If I missed anyone, I apologize.

The route was new for some of us and was suggested by Bob. It went out along the south service road to Round Swamp Road (exit 48) and then North. After a few turns, we rode through some beautiful horse country.

NEW STARTING TIME: The High council has meet and decided: Next week, being our first ride in June, will be a new starting time: 30 minutes earlier: 7 AM at Lakeville and Northern Blvd. and 7:30 at Wheatley.

See everyone then.
