Add another to the solo riders. Primarily because, being retired, I choose to pick the best weather days of the week for rides. No schedules to coordinate. And I'm not too interested in regular group rides: too much coordination, 'just wait for Bill.....and Frank......and now wait for Beth....' and I'm sure to ride faster than most and slower than many. Naw, just plug in the ear buds and sail along in the moment. Stop whenever I like and change plans whenever I like. JRA.

There are several other forum members in the region but no gatherings. My friend who owns our LBS likes the C&V bikes and we work together on restorations. He does much older ones, '40 & '50s tanks. That's nice camraderie.

I do enjoy road trips and getting together with forum members. CCRT, Northern Rail Trail, Farmington Canal Trail, etc. Always a good time. Planning to do many more.
