Friday Night around 5:30 PM Randy, Tom and I set out for Cincinnati OH. We decided to ride our bikes down instead of driving. The trip was 160 + or - a few feet. Watching the weather we were determined to ride rain or shine. As luck would have it, the rain held off but it was colder than a well diggers back side. Randy mapped out the scenic route we would take, after fueling up at Sunoco off we went.
The ride there was bearable to say the least, it sure did make the hotel hot tub feel good. We shacked up at a Holiday Inn for the weekend for our spring EMS conference. Every 4 months we attend a EMS continuing education conference, when we renew or EMS certifications every three years we have to have a set number of continuing ed ours. Anyway my wife made the trip there with Sharon and would make the return trip with me.
Sunday afternoon at the conclusion of the conference we ran to the parking lot and mounted our bikes and headed home. The plan was to stop by a Harley dealership on the way home but at the last minute I decided I needed a little alone time with the wife and exited stage left. The decision was a good one in my mind. I got home faster and got to have lunch with the wife. Wouldn't you know it was the best meal I had all weekend. We had Popeye's chicken, sat next to my bike on the curb and watch traffic go by. We must have seen a thousand bikes go by. Funny how the high light of the weekend was sitting on curb eating chicken.
There was the three of use on our bikes and a group in a car. We made it home first I do believe. Playing a the Holiday Inn with the guys was fun but you just can't beat home. Home sweet home.
