Atlantic;  Beavertail lighthouse.  Imagine riding those bikes; in the winter, through the woods and over the roads about 50-60 miles each way over the bridge and back.  Men were men and boys were boys.

Feb 26th? Should be down right balmy by then! :)
I love the little Honda moped-ish one. By the same token, you know his legs were warmer.
What's with the orange vests?

Status: offline 		Except from a club email that this picture generated; however, I don't know anybody in the older picture.

"The mini on the left that Bob Reuter is leaning on is a Suzuki, the step thru that Freddie Pease is sitting on was either a C70 or a moped from back then. Next to Freddie, on Bill Matheson's left is a Hodaka 90 (I think) and I think the bike on the far right was a Rupp or some other mini bike thing from the mid sixties. Of course if you look closely you see the normal collection of Husky's, Ossa's and Bultaco's."

Status: offline 		This " Penguin Ride" is just a friends fun ride. Although many of the guys riding on that day are members of the Rhody Rover MC, the Rhody Rover MC did not plan or organize this ride. The official "Rhody Rover Penguin Rally" will not be run this year. Derbyvilly is property owned by a private land owner.

Great job by everyone yesterday; THAT is what being part of a club is ALL about. Riders could ride 20-40 miles and comeback for: Chilli, cornbread, calzones, pizza, chips, dip, cookies, pie and some

We were even generous enough to slip a great donation to our host.

Thanks everyone

Thank you for organizing it but somehow I wound up leaving with a couple of extra adult beverages in my cooler. TO the owner of the beverages, Sorry for that but I'll make sure to bring more to the next ride...

Any pics of the group?
