On Saturday January 13th we had our first breakfast ride of the new year.  While the temps were in the upper 20’s – low 30’s and too cold for two wheels we did have eight members and spouse attend breakfast.  Those who made the ride were: Ken Alan, Susan Bear & Robi, Steve & Bonnie and yours truly.  This was an exceptionally chilly morning ride and we will do a lunch/brunch ride for the next couple of months in hopes of being able to attend on two wheels.  Here is a group photo of the attendees.

On Saturday December 9th Bill, aka Rev, Antje, Stephen, Terry, Ken, Alan, Susan, and yours truly met for our monthly breakfast ride.  This month we went back to KG’s.  However this month’s ride was rather a “COLD” one.  Alan & Susan were the only ones brave enough to ride their BMW’s from Vail where the Temp was 17 degrees with the wind-chill factor added in.  Here are pictures of our riders and the breakfast gang:
