DC and LR, rolled out of OSB at 6:15 am into a cool clear morning with no wind. Just after pulling out on to Nash St., NY Jon joins the group and the three begin a tempo ride, out Nash St and on to Hornes Church. As we roll toward the I-95 overpass a solitary, older model, green pickup truck (Chevy I think) with wide tires, headed in the opposite direction begins to move to our side of the road. DC raises his hand to get his attention, he sees us...and keeps coming over. He buzzes us too close for comfort. We could not get the license plate as he was moving too fast right along with my heart rate. No doubt this was deliberate. Scary.
We roll on to Old Smithfield and turn left (away from the sandy part) on to Friday, and right on to what is actually Simms/Green Pond Rd. We turn off to the left just before going over 264 on to Country Side (frontal road for 264), to Lamm Rd, Bloomery, Packhouse and back in on Nash St. NY Jon turns on Airport and DC and LR continue on Nash and get buzzed by an older Cadillac as we approach Grace, this time from behind. Oh boy, the crazies are out. Is it a full moon or something? Great ride, 24.5 miles at a 21 average. DC and Jon were merciful today and let me hang on. Fantastic weather, fall is coming, and the clear skies rounded out a great morning. A great way to start the day.
