TyTass Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 So, I haven't logged on here in about a year. Glad to see the coffee group is still going strong. When I sold my GS in July 15 I just couldn't watch everyone else having so much fun. haha. Anyway, my GS has been well loved by the guy that bought her in NC. He regularly sends me pictures of their camping adventures. When's the next coffee? I haven't gotten another bike yet, but I miss seeing everyone. Well, we miss you, too. However, I wouldn't say the MACC is going strong so much as the discussion thread is going strong. It's been way too hot for people to brave it for coffee ... but now that the heat wave seems to have ended perhaps someone will be brave and make a suggestions. Terri and I have been discussing a Richmond Sugar Shack run sometime this next weekend if the weather is good. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Well, it's been a long time, my friends. Is there any interest in getting together for coffee and donuts anytime in the next few weeks? I know, it's a hot time of the year, and this weekend looks to be in the high 90's, but if we wait a week or two perhaps we'll find a weekend that's not so bad. Anyway, I'd like to hear from you ...

lawnchairboy Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I'm game. smelling like game in this weather, but I'll take a ride... Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Yeah, not this weekend ... we'd be so gamey that someone would shoot us ... Prolly our wives! BTW I like your signature line. One of my favorite tunes by them. Link to comment
OleJarhead Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Ole Jarhead @ Lake Anna reporting for duty. You say where and when and I'll ask my CG (Bride) for a Liberty Chit and I am likely to be there Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 OK, this coming weekend the weather looks less grueling. How about we meet up When: Sat, 7/29 ... how about 9:30 am? Where: The Coffeehouse Located in: Williamsburg Crossing Shopping Center Address: 5251 John Tyler Hwy #6, Williamsburg, VA 23185 Really good coffee. A few bites to eat. Some nice tables outside. Easy access to the Nickle-Dime loop (Routes 5 and Routes 10 bounded by the Jordan Point Bridge and the Jamestown Ferry.) IOW easy in and out away from I-64 (very important). Any takers?

lawnchairboy Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 sure craig, unless the president has some other task for me, I'll see you there. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Sounds good. Think I'll take 10 to the Scotland ferry. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Yeah, that's what I was thinkin we'd do to, Scott. Take the Ferry, go have coffee, perhaps ride up 5 to the bridge, then down 10 back to the beltway. If you or Chris wanna meet up on the way there and/or after, that's good for me. Link to comment
lawnchairboy Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 I'm up for anything as far as a meet Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 How about 8:00 at that Shell station near Chris' house ... on Pughsville Rd, right? Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Unfortunately the forecast looks pretty danged crappy. Let's see if it changes. Link to comment
lawnchairboy Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Rog, I'll watch the weather Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Well, I've been watching since yesterday and it's done nothing but change continuously. Right now, however, it's looking pretty righteous, but we'll have to see what it looks like Friday night. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Wx is all over ... as expected. Can't change that. However, what I do think we should change is the meet-up time at The Coffeehouse. Let's shoot for 10:00-ish. Didn't consider that the Ferry will likely cause us to sit and wait a while. Likely it's just the 3 of us that will be going, but just in case someone else wants to show up, I thought we make the plan meet reality. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Right now it looks gnarly for Friday night, tapering down early Saturday AM. Keep me updated either here or via text if you plan to cancel. Am I to presume shifting from 9:30 to 10:00 would also shift our meet up from 8:00 to 8:30? Looks like we need to keep oleJarhead in the loop too since he rogered up earlier in the thread. Edited July 27, 2017 by Blind Squirrel Link to comment

Will let you know. As for our morning meet up time to ride changing, No. The point of changing the arrival at the coffeehouse was to account for the possibility of losing up to a half hour waiting at the ferry. I'll send oleJarhead a PM. Link to comment
TyTass Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Well, the weather looks like crap. I don't think I'm up for riding around in thunderstorms and then showers and possible downpours. So, I think I'm going to wuss out. Sorry guys. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Okay. Let's shoot for another weekend in the near future. Link to comment
TyTass Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 This Saturday? Same Bat time, same Bat channel? Looking pretty warm, pushing 90, and a some scatter T-storms @ 40% ... just calls for cool gear. Perhaps earlier launch? Link to comment
lawnchairboy Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I'm out of town this weekend. Link to comment
TyTass Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 No takers? Well, never mind for this week. I may just head up there myself. Link to comment
Chris K Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Craig, I am up for a morning ride tomorrow. Lexington, NC looks about half way! Link to comment
TyTass Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Dang, I went ahead an made other plans. Thanks for the idea, though. Link to comment
Blind Squirrel Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) I rode up to the D.C.area to see a buddy Friday. Spent the night, then rode home on Saturday. Need to get my rear tire changed out this upcoming Saturday. Edited August 7, 2017 by Blind Squirrel Link to comment
Wildpiper Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Just moved to the D.C. area a couple months ago, hoping to meet some of you at some point. Link to comment
TyTass Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Just moved to the D.C. area a couple months ago, hoping to meet some of you at some point. Hi ______ (insert name here) ... We can keep trying to get this thing a-rolling again, but I'm about to get busy on the weekends with a part-time gig I have going. I know for sure I can't make it Sat. 19 Aug. This wknd's wx looks kinda crappy, but I've been known to make it if its not a constant downpour or lots of lightning. So, I won't count it out completely ... well, not yet anyway. BTW: What is your name? Link to comment
TyTass Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Wow, the weather is looking awful ... 80% Thundershowers. Perhaps another weekend? Link to comment
