One of the great things about living in AZ is that when motorcycle season is winding down elsewhere, it is just revving up here! A friend of mine is part of a great organization (Share the Magic), a charity group that benefits several domestic abuse shelters. They have for the past several years done a charity bike ride to raise money for this cause, and I have been happy and proud to participate. This year was no exception, so last Saturday off we went, as they expanded the event to a "ride & drive" . (This is mainly because Joan's fiance, Al, has both a bike and a Corvette, I secretly believe). Nonetheless, it added to the size of the ride and made for a great spectacle down the road as there were some 35 motorcycles and about 20 Vettes in the mix, plus a couple of other tag-along convertibles. It was a great day for the ride, of course, with the temps topping out in the low 90s. Here in AZ, with low humidity, that makes for a great day! Not to mention a pretty darn good excuse to stop and grab an adult beverage at the stops along the way!
After this, we went with some friends to a fun local biker hangout - the Hideaway, in Cave Creek, to finish up the afternoon. As it would happen, there was a radio station having a promo there and the fun just continued!
