I had a wonderful ride this morning with Dave Bierbaum. We rode the Madison County MUP into beautiful downtown Edwardsville, Illinois. It took us 4 tries to find a cafe that served pie and we still had to wait in line for a seat, but it was worth it. Dave took photos of the chocolate pie so you'll have to wait for his report if you need to see a photo.

Uh - I told the people in the cafe that I rather enjoyed being referred to as "Your Magisty". I find that I get better service than when I go by "Retro Grouch".

Now that we've done it once, the St Louis area people who had conflicts can begin planning their calendars for next year. Heck, we'll even except people from outside of the St Louis area if they promise to be nice.
