South Shore Riders Kool Kone Ride '08
Season opener - May 24

This year's season opening ride may have been our biggest ride yet! Thirty-two (32) bikes started out from our staging area in Bridgewater. We were treated to a pleasant surprise as the manager of the 99 Restaurant that we were parked near, treated us all to ice cold bottled water to start of our ride. It was a beautiful day, perfect for riding, and the roads that our Road Captain Dick M. picked out were the same... beautiful and perfect for riding! That Route 105 through Lakeville, MA is amazing as it twist and dips it way through working farms and undeveloped woodlands. The service, food, and company at the Kool Kone was as excellent as usual. (My new favorite is the kale soup!). The stop for lunch allowed us to get caught up with old friends and also to make some new ones. Then it was more great back roads for the ride home. We got back just before 2:00pm as planned. Thanks to all of you for coming out and making it such a great ride!
