And guess whom ended up meandering all the way to Klinger's in Walton NY???:doorag:
My wife and I left Norwich and headed for Oneonta. Once there we took 28 over the mountain and down into Delhi. From Delhi we took 10 south into Walton. We stopped for a break and to find Klinger's (as I have never been there). We left there and took 206 through Masonville, and Bainbridge, and into Greene. From green we headed back to Norwich where I dropped my wife off to the car and rode back up to the house in East Pharsalia. We wore our snowmobile, bibs included, to ride today and my wife said she got lots of strange looks when she stopped at the local Price Chopper with all of her gear on minus the helmet.
I learned a couple things today. I don't really want to tour two-up on roads that have super twisties in them. State Route 28 from Oneonta to Delhi has a couple dozen sharp corners and switchbacks, and was not as much fun (with a passenger) as I had imagined. I also learned that 206, and 41 are great roads, and that they actually run together for some distance. I picked up a nice folded plastic map that I am going to keep with the mistress and I am going to work on a route for a future group trip. I want to say it will be this Saturday, but I cannot be certain of that date yet.
My wife and I both had an absolutely amazing time on the group ride we did last week and definitely hope to ride with Jim, Nancy, Don, and Bill again. Thanks again to Jim for leading the way on that great run. It was so nice to meet a group of people that believe all spyderlovers are friends, even if they haven't met them yet.
Just sayin'............
