Great day for a ride

The first video covers the segment from Parker Road up Caraway and west on Matthews. You can see Deb and her red bike on my right. Charlie is directly in front of me most of the time.

The second video covers the end of the ride as we proceed west on Matthews, north on Bridge and into the Clopton Clinic parking lot.

 

What started out as a chilly overcast day turned out to be perfect warm sunny weather for the 2009 Association Motorcycle Club/ABATE of Arkansas Dist. 2 Toy Run.

Maria and I participated in the annual event in November, 2007, but skipped it last year. Maria begged off since she had grocery shopping and other things to do today, so I rendezvoused with BMW friends Charlie and Deb Parsons at the staging area around the Harley-Davidson dealership on Jonesboro’s southeastside after stopping at a OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA         variety store en route to pick up a toy to donate.

Deb and Charlie rode their BMW /5s – Deb on the red one and Charlie on the green one.

The ride started at 2 p.m. and we were fairly near the front of the pack as we wound our way down Industrial Avenue to Parker Road, west to Caraway, north to Matthews and Washington and north on Bridge Street to the Clopton Clinic parking lot.

The payoff was a chili and tamale lunch at the Association MC clubhouse.  OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
