We are planning on another ride Wednesday night. As we did last week, the ride will start at the Wal-Mart parking lot in Dunns Corners, Westerly, RI and depart at 5:30pm.

We will take a different route which will take us through Westerly, Hopkinton, Richmond, through the Arcadia State Park Management Area, Exeter, West Greenwich and into Coventry where we will arrive at the Denny's Restaurant off of Exit 7 at approximately 6:15pm, where we will meet other X Riders that will join the ride at that point. We will have a short layover at Denny's, (we won't eat there because it took too long last week) and depart at approximately 6:30pm.

We will take New London Turnpike to Route 3 North where we will pass the Station Nightclub Fire Memorial Site and continue on to Cowesett Avenue to East Greenwich. We will travel on Route 1 from East Greenwich to Pt. judith where we will stop near George's in Gallilee, where anyone that would like can get something to eat at the take out area.

From Pt. Judith we will travel along the coast past several beaches to the Sea Wall in Narragansett and line up the X's for the world to see. At the wall there is ice cream available accross the street for anyone that would like it.

From the wall we will travel to Route 1 back to Dunns Corners.

Hope everyone that came last week can make it again and bring some others along with you, also, bring a passenger, that is why they put that extra seat behind your seat when they built the bike.

Thanks

Chris,

If it's good I'll be there.

Dave,

Again, hope your coolant problem gets resolved, and hope we see you again soon in Rhode Island.

Any of you southern boys up for a slightly different route from Denny's? There's some great riding north and west of there. If you're set on taking the route you 'splained, I'm up for that too; I got no problem doing a tour the other corner of the state some other time.

Either way, short of a major natural catastrophe, I'll catch y'all this Wednesday.

Ed,

As I told Chris, if the weather is good this afternoon I'll be there. As far as the route goes, there is nothing cast in stone, we're always open for different things.

Hope the weather holds out so I can see you all tonight.

according to weatherbug on computer says rain AFTER midnight, might just work out 4 the ride tonight if it's correct, if not won't make next week or week after as be on vacation to tx (no, not taking the bike, renting minivan as it'll be GF, her daughter and my 3 kids i'm picking up in philly). so if don't see ya'll tonight it'll be a few weeks.

It's not looking too bad right now so I plan on riding today as long as nothing drastic happens between now and 5:15 when I get to the Wal-Mart lot.

Chris,

Next time my wife should be able to make the trip as well as Lee (with the Gold Wing) and his wife, so Deb won't be the only passenger.

Enjoyed riding with both of you, have a nice vacation.

I hope to join you all in a few weeks. As soon as I get back to RI with my new VTX 1800 I will be there. I'll see if I can convince the little misses to come along. Until then ride safe.
