Merry christmas everyone.
Well tom and rosy it has been fun and enjoyable to listen to you guys sparing about the weather. Ill keep my mouth shut about the weather here in tn, and fly under the radar hopefully un-noticed and well see you at the snowbird gathering in march.

[Rosy]

Weather wás never the issue, it was Tom, not doing the Warm-up dance! We would never bring cold air to Florida, trust me! But, Tom, doesn't know how to dance, so what do we do? Anybody have any suggestions? Maybe we can ask, Victor Cruz to do the Salsa dance for us!

Jerry, you have an open trailer which is not a problem. It's Rosy with his cold weather hauler. He doesn't even change to warmer Florida air in the tires when he crosses the Georgia/Florida line !

See, I told you Tom didn't know anything about dancing, he thought it was from Taco Bell! What am I going to do with this guy?
You guys are killing me, telling me it is so warm there, when we are in the teens up here! LOL
BUT, we are going to have a white Christmas here, not so much in Florida!
Have a great time riding the trikes guys!
Thank you Tom for the pictures of the lunch and ride! It was great seeing the "gang" again!
CaptainH, how is the golf course coming? Reggie helping your sister at Lena's?

Now is it ok if I try it out before you guys get here ? . lol We are playing for a coffee or maybe a coffee ice cream ?That sounds good too . We could play partners , & draw names to get a partner .

Now if you & Tom are lucky and get to be partners , what a team that would be . please play nice lol . Oh , bring the cold weather hauler , if things heat up , there will be a place to cool off .

Sounds good to me. We can get some pink spray paint as it will show up nicely on his black trailer and also match his "Pink" house he has this year! Lol

[Rosy]

Our pink house is a nice place to spend winter in! We have all the comforts of home and even more!
I will make sure you get invited over for a New England style dinner, but they don't let strangers travel across the Causeway to get to our house! It is like a gated community, LOL
So, you better be nice!

Phil, how are your new tires? UltraFred, you still running all over the South, driving those new cars, what a life!
See you soon!

Hi Rosy , yes to running all around the south , just got back in 1 hr ago from Macon,Georgia , long ride but nice ,still warm when I got back to Orange City !!!!!

Well I just secured a place for our 2017 Snowbird Gathering. After talking with several who have attended in the past we decided to change the date and location and do something a little different. Location will be Ocala, Florida, date will be 5 March thru 9 March 2017. This will be right next to Bike Week for those who have wanted to have both events closer together so they could attend both.

The motel is the Quality Inn, 3434 S/W College Road. PH # 352-854-3200. It is just off of I 75 on the east side about 2 blocks on the right. Price will be $70 plus tax includes breakfast, heated pool and there are several places to eat in the area with I think about 4 that you can walk to within 3-5 minutes. The reservations are open now just mention that you are with the Snowbird group. More to follow as soon as we can get someone to put together a sign-in roster for us.

Wow, Zook, I am glad that you posted this as a sticky... I was unaware of this until this morning, and Tom lives right here in Titusville. Will have to make sure to meet up with you Tom! Do you ever go to bike night Thursdays at Dogs'R'Us?

Now I will have to try and clear our schedule so that Sandi and I can head over to Ocala

Hello Mark, Actually I had not heard of Thursday night at Dogs, I'll have to stop in. You guys are more than welcome to join us in Ocala in March. We also had a ride for lunch yesterday with about 10 people in Ormond. There are several of our northern friends that ride here from Dec thur April with us.

Rosy, Don't blame us for having a good time and if you look carefully at your photo in the left hand corner you will see your lovely wife Janice all dressed and waiting at the trike for you!! She is even waiting on you !! lol You wouldn't have liked the ride yesterday anyway as the food was great and the weather was barely in the 80s. Even Herman and Reggie made it from Mass...

Hi Tom,

I actually think that they shut down bike nite at Dogs for the holidays, since I didn't see it on their marquee as we were headed out of town last Thursday to go north and visit Sandi's kids in Indiana (COLD!) for the holidays. Headed back home tonight, and looking forward to getting back on the bike. I will have to see what I can do schedule-wise for Ocala, since I still have a year or two until I join the every-day-is-the-weekend crowd, but if the whole week is out we can probably make it up for a day or two.

Mark

Yeah boy

[MikeyTX]

You are welcome in whatever vehicle you choose to ride in !
I really don't think the weather will be bad coming across I-10 at that time. Maybe a little cool but hopefully not cold. Just look at the 10 day weather forecast a couple of days before you want to go.
