Looks like everyone is hungry after the ride. | |

Our 50+ gathering ready to ride to Rattlesnake Trail FOS Bench for 10th Anniversary group Photo, this 8th of March, 2018. | |
| |
|
As far as you can see, fun loving and energetic FOS gathered for a group photo by Dan Back. | |
| |
|
The Faster group stopped to enjoy the beauty of the trail near CG Headquarters. Not only is the scenery beautiful but the ladies are looking exceptionally luscious. Ahh, the men, not so much, but they do look healthy! | |
| |
|
I had to take a picture from both ends of the bike line-up to capture the full scope of 50 bikes waiting for their riders. We were waiting for the group to form around our FOS bench for 10th Anniversary Photo. | |

Ten years and ten thousand memories. Our FOS family has certainly grown in numbers! | |

WOW, FOS invades BIG WAVE DAVE’S Kitchen and Bar as we ‘initiate’ this brand new place to eat, just off the Rosemary Trail, OB. | |
| |
|
BIG WAVE DAVE’S was a very good venue for this 50+ sized group, free popcorn and appetizer made the short wait very pleasant. | |
| |
|
Just had to share this ‘treasure picture’ of the bike line-up at lunch and this isn’t all of them. FUN and EXERCISE goes hand in hand with this great group of FOS Friends. Oh yes, we enjoy eating, too. | |

|
We loaded our kayaks and caravaned to Soldier Creek for a 2.5 mile paddle up and back from a launch point at the end of State St. near the Perdido Beach Town Offices. | |
