Blind Squirrel Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Well, it looks like I am out, not in. I am having Photodynamic Therapy on my face on the 10th, and won't be coming out into the sun for three days. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted July 4, 2014 Author Share Posted July 4, 2014 I'm going to have to google that one..but doesn't sound like fun if it means you can't be outside. Hope all goes well. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Looks like some possibility of scattered storms Saturday. I still plan to head to williamsburg. If it is looking really bad, I may decide to cancel. Certainly don't want anyone to be unsafe. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 7, 2014 Share Posted July 7, 2014 Well, scattered T-storms don't worry me overly much. One can often dodge them visually if not completely overcast. Terri and I are hoping to make it. Hoping to take the Scotland-Jamestown Ferry and then come up the Colonial Parkway. If the weather's good enough, we may head up the Colonial Parkway to walk around Yorktown a bit. I should know after tomorrow's class whether I get a bunch of homwork piled on or not. So far for this class, it's looking pretty lean on homework. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Well, we're planning on attending. Forecast not improved, but hoping to attend regardless. Same route planned. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Well, the forecast has improve a bunch for Williamsburg area. No longer predicting scattered showers @ 40%. Howver as surounding areas, like VA Beach, still are its still a crap shoot as to what the weather will actually be. Still planning on making it unless we get the biblical deluge like last night ... thunder woke me up at least 3 times throughout the night. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Sounds good. We got some pretty massive rain here in FXBG last night too, just a little of the thunder/lightning though. Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday. Craig--does the "we" mean you better half is coming as well? It'll be great to see you both again. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Looking a little better for tomorrow morning. Looking forward to enjoying a nice ride in the morning. Gonna play around a little with a route this afternoon and see what I come up with. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Craig--does the "we" mean you better half is coming as well? It'll be great to see you both again. Yes, if the weather forecasts holds as it currently is. If raining somewhat, I may be attend alone. If storming like the last two days, I won't be there either. Yesterday was really bad here at the beach. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 Well the weather here is beautiful. However, I'm going to have to be out for the day. Jill needs me to be home today. See ya'll next month. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 We're here ... only ones so far. The place is packed though ... we'll try to snag a largish table. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 Was a good time had by all? Any discussion on the next location and date? Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 As it turned out, Terri and I were the only attendees, but yes we had a great time. The place was crowded at 11:00 and then again at 12:00., but food and coffee was exceptional! I hope we go back, but it may be wiser to do so after summer bacation so we'll have room enough to sit together. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted July 14, 2014 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) For the next get together I submit for consideration Captain Buzzy's Beanery located at 2623 E.Broad Street, Richmond, VA 23223.

jbr7t Posted July 14, 2014 Author Share Posted July 14, 2014 Sounds good to me Scott. Would you like to take the lead on setting up a date and such? Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Okay. Days for consideration are the 16th, the 23rd or the 30th. Anyone have a preference? Link to comment
jbr7t Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 My vote would be for the 30th. I'm booked the other two. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 (edited) I'm leaning that way too. Hopefully it will be a little cooler and quieter. Edit: That is Labor day weekend May need to push into the beginning of September. Edited July 15, 2014 by Blind Squirrel Link to comment
jbr7t Posted August 2, 2014 Author Share Posted August 2, 2014 Ok. Let's look at Capt. Buzzy's for september. I'm going to cheat and do an easy one for me in August since it seems like schedules and holiday eat up weekends this month. Anyone up for Sunday 17th at 1 pm at Blackstone Coffee in Fredericksburg? Link to comment
jbr7t Posted August 13, 2014 Author Share Posted August 13, 2014 Bueller...bueller? Guess everyone is busy the 17th. If anyone is interested let me know. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Well, we're into September. Which weekend do we want to get together? Link to comment
Fathom Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 If we're still looking at Blackstone in Fredericksburg, I think I could do the 20th or 21st. I'm sure I could dust off my extremely convoluted route sheet (that almost entirely avoids I-95) if anyone wants to head out from Alexandria with me. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 I can probably do the 21st. My daughters Bday party is on the 20th. I'd be fine with Blackstone in Fredericksburg. Also, someone had mentioned a place in Richmond called Capt. Buzzy's. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I will be heading back home from the DC area on the 21st. A cup of Joe in Fredricksburg would make a nice stop. Link to comment
TyTass Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 We're going to be heading back home after a trip to Skyland in Shenandoah for the weekend. Not sure we can make it in time, but I should know closer to the event. Link to comment
KTsRidin Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 That's Blue Angels weekend for me a the Norfolk Naval Station, so I'm out the weekend of the 20th Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I can probably do the 21st. ... I'd be fine with Blackstone in Fredericksburg. What time? Link to comment
jbr7t Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 anytime after about 12:30/1ish would work for me. So long as I can get the battery replaced tonight. I'm planning to do the battery tonight. Need a little ride tomorrow to warm it up to do the oil change so that would be perfect. I can probably do the 21st. ... I'd be fine with Blackstone in Fredericksburg. What time? Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 That is too late for me. I have to be back down in Chesapeake in time to do the yard work I missed this weekend. I was thinking somewhere between 11-12. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Here @ 11:20. Will hang until noon. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 Sorry I missed you yesterday Scott. Wasn't out of church until noon. Hopefully if all works out I'll see you at the FART in a couple weeks. Keeping my fingers crossed that the schedule works out. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 October is a rather full month for me. Going to the FART the first weekend. Second weekend is open. Morton's BMW Oktoberfest the 18th. Family camping trip the last weekend. Anyone FARTing or Coming to Oktoberfest? Maybe we could look at the 11th or 12th as a potential day for coffee? Link to comment
KTsRidin Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Anyone FARTing or Coming to Oktoberfest? Oh man, did you really just go there?! Link to comment
jbr7t Posted September 24, 2014 Author Share Posted September 24, 2014 KT..you obviously haven't be following the FART thread too well. That one is pretty mild compared to many of the "remarks" Link to comment
jbr7t Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 So a couple of us "kind of" Coffee Clubbed while FARTing. But, I'm always up for an excuse to ride and get some good coffee (I've realized I am now a coffee snob) Anyway, October appears to be pretty much shot for me. If someone else wants to do something please feel free to post. I'm going to skip into November. November 15th 11am The Art Of Coffee 15722 Kings Hwy Montross, VA 22520 http://www.theartofcoffee.biz/index2.html Yes, this is a repeat location. But I'm ok with that because I was the only one that showed up last time. It was a cool place. Used to be a mechanic shop and they renovated. So I think it would be cool to get a picture of the bikes in front of the shop. Anyway, who's in? Link to comment
TyTass Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I put it on my calendar. Can't say 100% I'll make it this far out, but it does seem very possible. Link to comment
lawnchairboy Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) I'll do my best, but don't know what my call schedule looks like yet, looks like a nice little ride. Edited October 9, 2014 by lawnchairboy Link to comment
TyTass Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 The place looks nice, too. Link to comment
jbr7t Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 Yes, I think for the Tidewater folks it could certainly be made into a nice ride. A lot of cool scenery and neat little towns between. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I am down for a firm "maybe". Link to comment
jbr7t Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 I am down for a firm "maybe". Is that stronger or weaker than a "definite maybe"? Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I am down for a firm "maybe". Is that stronger or weaker than a "definite maybe"? Equal. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Things are looking better. The Mrs. is now also a firm "maybe". Link to comment
KTsRidin Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 Using Scott's scale I'm somewhere in between a definite maybe and a firm maybe Going to see about talking Jennifer into coming with again. We had a good time before - thanks! Link to comment
lawnchairboy Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 Looks like a go for me Link to comment
Fathom Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 Yeah, this sounds eminently do-able. Any excuse to make the run over the 301 bridge, and you guys are not just any old excuse! The 11:00 am meet-up time almost borders on humane... ideal for the dirty stay-ups amongst us... like me! Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 I hope it isn't this cold next week! Link to comment
jbr7t Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 Yea still a go. Trying to work out my schedule now. Wife threw a little wrench into the situation because she is going to now be out of town this weekend. Checking to see if grandma wants to hang with the kids. Otherwise I may drive out and bring them along. But I should be there one way or another. Link to comment
TyTass Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I should be a go ... not sure about Terri yet. Link to comment
