Editor's Note: Unfortunately one of our Polar Bear destinations, The Upstream Grill, closed before we could get there. So the Grand Tour ride coordinators found us berth at The Cabin, site of our pre-Christmas toy run, these many years.

I arrived at the DD at 0815 for coffee. At 0900 Anonymous Ed showed up. He would be leading the ride today but alas his GPS would not accept the address, he even tried 3x. Pogy called at 0910 to wish us a safe ride as he was unable to come due to prior obligation.
We departed the DD at 0928 with me in the lead. Heading south we passed a rider sleeping on the shoulder of I-95 southbound, it was the Fonz. Continued south with Fonz as sweep and arrived at the Cabin at 1127. It rained all the way.
Fonz and Anonymous got the table and I went to check-in. As we settled in for our meal who showed up but Thumper. He looked great and all grown up. We left about 1230 got gas then headed north on the GSP at warp speed. The rain stopped near the top and I was home at 1441.

| Thumper astride a BMW. For those who are not regular blog followers, Thumper was one of Chris' motorcycle students and decided to join us last season. His job situation changed and we haven't seen much of him. He earned his nickname riding a single cylinder motorcycle that first season. He lives in Jersey now and we hope to see him at more rides. |
