mixed emotions

A group of my friends and I gathered together to say goodbye to a riding companion. It was sad occasion even though the group acted more like they were at a party. Something a kin to an Irish wake. In their own way each remember things and places visited, further cementing memories of their time spent with the departed.

With this years Polar Bear Ride we sadly said goodbye to the 2011 riding season.

On a happy note. The same group welcomed in the 2012 riding season with much 'pomp and circumstance.' (everybody seemed pompy & circumstancy to me)
We had a good lunch and a great ride after just to kick 2012 to a decent start.
Luther, Louis,Emily,Steve,Johnny,Zack & Wes all made the cut and are Polar Bears.
With the Lords blessing the coming years riding is going to be great.
catch ya on the road
