I'm a bit late on posting this up, sorry. It's time to get out and enjoy our mellow summer weather.

Come and (sw)eat at:

Sleepy Hollow
10333 E. Gobbler Dr.
Floral City, FL. 34436
(352) 726-3242

http://www.wallowatthehollow.com/

Saturday, July 14th, 10am.

This place does about the best job I've ever seen of handling groups. Good, cheapfrugal $5 complete breakfast, on one of the twistyest roads in central Flowrida. Airboats coming and going, outdoor band, trinket vendors, eating breakkie outside under the live oaks. What's not to like?

CASH ONLY

Addy: 6six9 Woodview Dr.
          Tavares, FL. 32778

An RSVP is appreciated, both for the breakkie and/or for Margie's coffee at our place.

Thanx folks, from your neighborhood aad.

She's a looker, no doubt.

I was looking for that or a similar image for the opening post,  thanks for posting it up. I wonder if she has a friend...
 
Thanks for getting the gang together in FL. Unfortunately I can't make this RTE but what a great place to eat at. I go at least once a month.
 
Ya, that's her, but I hear that Al used the wrong end of his cigar on her and she flew the coop  :beerchug: I'm in for the ride.........Steve
 
Steve,
I'll put in for the day off, not too promising though... 
I could use the change of scenery... Beaches, girls in Bikinis,
Y'all know there's more to life, right?
 
Alrighty then, I've been a bit busy lately. Reid and Joni, cool

Snake, I got ya

Marty, good luck

Coach T and 2fast, yer missing out big time on the future budding romance of our illustrious A.D.(d). >:D

Hi Al. :))

too funny
 
I'm lovin' all the chat.  There's no good reason that I can't make this, unless you take into consideration the long ride I have. The king of RTE's does it again. Look forward to seeing all you knuckleheads again. Thanks Steve.    Al

Good deal.

With a little luck, you'll catch a sun shower on the way home and cool off.
 
Should be in for this. Bike is back together and feeling 100%. And I'm not on call!!! Whoot! :)

Mike
 
Probably the "here" part. Should be at your place at the appointed time, maybe with a passenger! :08:

I miss you guys.. :051bye: already! At least I am with you in weather :) In fact, it may be hotter and more humid up here than it is down there right now. I am talking miserable, freakin excessive heat :'(  Sh*t like this makes me wish for winter! (Nah, not really).

Folks up north that I know are being reminded on a regular basis(by me >:D >:D ) that you have to go to Floriduh to escape the summer heat.
Hey, who'd a thunk it.

Have fun OTP, maybe a temperature break?

Hopefully see you this fall/winter.
 
I am going to try and make the meet up for Breakfast. I live just north of Tampa so I'll meet ya all there. Name is Jim & Michele Baker, ride a blue 2010 Connie 14.

thanks,

Jim

I wouldn't be sorry about that. Have yourselves a good ol' time up there.

Later.
 
I'll be blasting down I-75 from Valdosta early Saturday morning.  Probably leave Valdosta around 7:00AM if anyone from up this far north wants to join up. :great: :motonoises:
 
Might be pulling along an extra body or two. Guys from work that I've ridden with off and on. Good people, not too crazy, just not on Connies.  :rotflmao:

There goes the neighborhood!
 
With the bike in pieces, and the carbs 200 miles away (albiet in the right direction), it's
not likely I'll be showing up for breakfast :(

Eat hearty lads!

No worries, we'll have another soon. Cool venue that you miss, though.

BTW, I would assume your carbbies are already on the way back to ya, knowing how Steve works.
 
Steve,

Will be heading to Sleepy Hollow, not your place for the meet up. Too many sleepy heads in this little band of brothers to get going and make it to you first. We should be there not long after you arrive, but don't hold up the parade leaving from your place. It's the Ducati people that slow things down!! :rotflmao:

Mike
 
Shooot forgot to set the alarm!
Guess that I won't make it to Sleepy Hollow after all.
Enjoy the food and scenery.

Be thinking of you when I ride through the
Mt Rainier passes and the temp is a comfy 65 degrees

:s_hi:

And we'll be thinking of you in January when it's 70 here and minus?? in the passes out there, or the 34* and rain in the lower elevations.

But no doubt, much better mountain riding out there.

Jo, have fun out there. We miss ya here, truly.
 
Weather looks good, sh/be in low 80's at breakkie time, dew point around 70-72, 10% rain, increasing to 30% by mid afternoon.

Sure beats the weather up north lately.
 
Thanks for putting this on Steve.  Had a great time.  Good to see old friends and new ones. It's slowly getting where the C-14s are outnumbering the C-10s.  Love em all.  Nice ride there and back, only 390 miles round trip.  See everyone soon.  Hopefully some at the RTE next weekend to Benton Lee's. (Shameless plug!!) :beerchug:

Yeah.......bite me :'( :nananana: :'(
 
Hey, Brian. We missed you and Camper Dave! And about the weather, I never thought I'd be happy to be in Florida during the summer! Sheesh!
 
Good seeing all of you knuckleheads again. Thanks to SteveJ for getting us together once more. We're lucky to have his RTE enthusiasm in the SE.          Al
 
Eating is good.

And Al, yer welcome. Good to see ya even on a day you had a million things to do. And I know it was a really long ride for ya. ;) ;)

Doooood. I am sure our hot stuff was directly caused by Ole SteveJ coming up here and spreading "Floriduh" germs around the place. This is just wrong. I plan to retaliate by coming down next winter and makin you guys freeze yer assets off.  ;)

You mean like way down in the 60's? :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

I guess I'd best put the fuse back in for the grip heaters and try to find my home made electric shirt.

BTW Brian, Al's date stood him up. Bummer.

Hey Mike, as usual, nice pics. Thanks.

I noticed the last pic was on the KLR, quite the quantum leap in technology from the 14, eh?

See ya tomorrow a.m.
