A bunch of FOS headed out for a nite ride dinner out to Tackey Jacks, OB.


At dark, crossing 161, just waiting for the lite to chang


Riding in the back allows me to catch the many red rear lights in a row. A pretty cool spectacle. Sorry if it's a little blury.


All stopped to decide which way to return to the CG, decided to go down Rosemary, then across the wood bridge to Canal Road. A very fun ride.


Not all FOS rides go as planned. Starting time looked pretty good but a few minutes into the ride, rain drenched the group. A quick trip back to the starting point and a change of clothes made for a good lunch at Woodside Restaurant. FOS are amazing!!!
