Note from Chris Loynd: I wasn't able to make the ride this Sunday. I was with family in Easton, Maryland, celebrating my mother-in-law's 90th birthday. Here's Pogy's report.
Today was our short ride to Hooters in Wayne New Jersey. It was a late departure (0945) which would put us at Hooters by 11:00 – Marco texted me early to say that he was running late and would meet us down there so I called the Captain so he wouldn’t be looking for him in Stratford.
The troops picked me up in Darien about 10:05 – Grumpy in the lead, followed by the Captain, myself and Anonymous Ed in the tail gunner position. The ride was somewhat uneventful until we turned off the Garden State only to find Marco stranded on the side of the road. We stopped only to find out that Marco thought that the rear unit on the bike might had failed and he had already called AAA – Since he was in good hands, we departed for our destination.
Got there a little after eleven – ordered up our lunch, signed up, took some pictures and were back on the road by 12:30. No traffic to speak of – overcast, 44 degrees – I got home at 1330. Called Marco and he was in the truck with AAA on his way home. Turns out he had to have two tows – one to get him off of the GSP, the other to bring him home –
Grumpy did a great lead, 65 MPH and steady down and back
Until next time
Ride Safe

P.S.: It was later determined that Marco's drive shaft bearings failed. He had it replaced and was riding with us the next week. See pictures below.
