Hi DE Brothers & Sisters,

I wanted you to be aware of this upcoming ride through DE and Cape May, including the ferry. We need some more VTX's on this trip! Everyone is welcome.

<<The next scheduled ride will be on Sat. July 9. We will be riding down Rte 9 in Delaware to the Cape May ferry launch in Lewes, Delaware. After a nice lunch in Lewes (compliments of Planer Honda) we will be taking the 12:45PM ferry across the bay to Cape May, NJ. The ferry costs $23.00 per motorcycle. We will then ride back up through New Jersey crossing back into Delaware on the Delaware Memorial Bridge. We should return to the dealership around 4:30PM.

In order for us to meet the 12:45 ferry we will be meeting at the ChesDel
diner on Rte 13 south of Wilmington with our departure scheduled for 8:00AM. If you want to have breakfast or coffee at the diner before we leave please plan to arrive early enough so that we can depart by 8:00AM. The diner can be reached by taking either Rte 1 south off of I-95 and taking the very first exit at the base of the new bridge across the C&D canal and following the signs to Rte 13 south. The diner is about one mile down Rte 13 south on the left hand side. The other way is to just take Rte 13 south out of Wilmington, crossing over the St.Georges bridge and following the road to the diner. There are no gas stations on Rte 9 so plan to show up with as close to a full tank of gas as possible. There will be gas stops once we get back on Rte 1 south of Dover. There will be more details and a trip map available at the next meeting.>>

Do we have sign up anywhere or just show up? I know it might be a dumb question but I would like to go and bring the wife too... :D

Hey T-bone!

No, all of these rides are "show up & go". Just make sure that you get there early enough. I haven't made the last couple of rides. I think they have everyone sign a liability waiver before we leave. You wouldn't have to return to the dealership, either. We usually just peel off for home along the return route. I'm going to ask my wife along, too. But, I doubt she will go this time.

Hope to see you there! I haven't seen you since our "meet & greet" at Hooters.
