Things looked a little iffy on Friday night. The weather forecast called for rain early Saturday and during the night it arrived. Saturday morning found the skies cloudy and threatening and the ground wet, but, for once the got the prediction correct and as the morning went by so did the clouds. By noon it was sunny and reasonably warm. By afternoon it was beautiful with just a little wind every now and then.

Doug fired up the grill around 11 am and by the time the first hamburgers and hotdogs were ready, so were the people. Doug pretty much stayed on the grill from 11 until about 3pm when we ran out of food. Maria and Teresa did the wrapping and serving. Atlanta Motor World was footing the bill for the food so everyone ate up. We had the dogs and burgers as well as some chips and cold drinks.

Star Motorcycles had the trailer there with bikes as promised and they stayed busy all day with rides going out about every hour. Usually when a ride came in they headed straight for the food and drinks. It kept us busy all day.

Several members came by to say hey, ride a bike and talk a while. Several members for Stone Mountain came by as well. All in all it was a good day. We got to visit with friends, ride some bikes and most importantly raised some money for Feed the Children. As of this writing the tally isn't complete, but it should be somewhere between $400 and $500.

We will have a ride next weekend so keep a check on the web site and your email for more information. Plan on meeting at AWM at 9 am. We will roll out at 9:30 am.
