Grand Cane, LA | Do they have a website to view the ride routes and details or is this just a local thing? Looks like I may be in that area about that time when my brother and I make our trip to Nova Scotia. |

A big Thanks to all the riders who came out this past Saturday to kick off the 11th season that I have been the volunteer ride coordinator at Higgins !- Great to see some new faces as well as several old friends.
The rain held off and them temp did finally hit 50 on our ride up to Mason NH and the Parker Maple Barn- great ride & great food- worth the wait. Nice to see more and more places with designated Motorcycle Only parking ! A nice 160 mile first run of the season, looking forward to the next ride in May.
Keeping the food theme going, we will be headed to the shores of CT- more details to follow, check the Higgins website for details as well as RSVP?ing to me at victorytc@verizon.net
Ride Safe,
Jeff

Thanks to all those who came out yesterday for our last official rode of the season !- A great ride down to Mohegan Sun to enjoy some Krispy Kreme donuts !
Wow, how time flies- another season in the books, this marks my 12th year of volunteering to organize these rides for Ronnie & the gang at Higgins- a huge thanks to all who have come out over the years. We had our largest group to date this year- 17 bikes !
These rides are all about you, the riders ! I look forward to your feedback !
Look for new options and destinations in 2015- looking to do some ?destination ?rides where we can all meet at a location.
Think Spring !
See everybody in 2015.
Ride Safe,
