A good ride....

Had every intention of riding yesterday, however, in the process of waiting for it to warm up a little... I decided to straighten up my study by purging and shredding all the old "stuff" (bills, credit card statements, mutual fund statements, check stubs etc. etc.) At the same time Char decided to tackle cleaning out her closet...the day was gone.

Anyway, since we skipped yesterday and the wind looked like it was going to cooperate and stay in the single digits, we decided to do the loop today (70 miles).

It was a good day and a good ride, we saw the sports car enthusiast again today. Leading the pack was a red Ferrari Enzo followed by an orange Lamborghini Murcielago. Bringing up the rear was a pair of Ferrari 308's (one black, one red). While the old "Magnum PI" Ferrari is a nice car in it's own right...considering the company they were keeping, let's just say they were suffering by comparison.

One small bit of history from the "little known and less cared for" file...Char and I were at the Paris Auto show in September of 2002, which is where the Enzo was "officially unveiled".

Exotic cars aside (after all this is the second time I see this crew on River Road)...strangest and coolest part of today's ride was a guy playing the bagpipes on the levee...I promise, I can't make this stuff up. Anyway, if the sun and temperature hadn't been dropping so quick I would have had to turn around to go talk to him, or at least stop and listen for a while.
