We Are Home - Wrap Up

Saturday, Sept. 12

Rain is in the forecast.  Bill wants to pull out by 8 so we were up early to get the trailer packed and eat breakfast and put on the rain suits even though it wasn't raining yet.  Our group was Bill and Sandra; Ralph and Willa; Brad and Bobette; Roger and Ginny; Ken and Lois; Don and I; Dave Knight and Leon started with us but kept going when we stopped for gas.  First 100 miles were dry and I was beginning to think we were going to make it and then it started raining; not hard but enough to get the bikes awful dirty and us wet.  My CB stopped working and this is a brand new one!  I led around Harrisburg and then Bill took over the lead again.  We reached Lancaster by noon and then home for Don and I by 3:15.  The rain stopped around Newark  All said and done the trip was 1475 miles for me.  Now to get her in the shop and fixed and then probably only a few rides in the next month or two and then parked for the winter.
