I would consider Sat just because it's going to be warmer and 1hr. more of daylight. If we met at 1:30 hung out there for lunch and have some boston cream pie Neil's bringing, I left by 3pm I would be home 5-5;30 in the light just barely. I would still want to check the temps. If it doesn't work Neil's boston cream pie will taste just as good in the spring

I don't know where you guys live so I am not sure where the mid-way point would be.

Good point about the extra hour of daylight. In all honesty Saturday would work better for me as well.

The Sunday meet up at Joff's Backyard Grill is cancelled due to lack of interest for Sunday.

I won't be making it on Saturday. I'm putting the bike away for the season. Have a good time at lunch.

I'm not putting it away just yet. I'll keep it to a 1hr or so as long as it stays above 45. Last year I put it away early Dec. I hope I can go as long this year.

Congrats to you Sox guys they played a great series. After 95 years I'm glad you were around to see them win at Fenway. Bean town is going to be a happy place today.

Huh? Ok, so Saturday would be no good for Neil. Honestly those who expressed an interest in this really live pretty far from each other. With this season's weather volatility maybe it just can't work out this time. Appreciate the effort HywRider - nice try.

Neither am I. There is still plenty of riding left before winter rolls in. Saturday is looking pretty good so far. Maybe I'll visit family in the Bridgewaters. Any good Chinese food in the Bridgewater-Middleboro-Taunton area?

Just did a quick search. There are 19 Chinese restaurants in that area.

There is some nice riding down in that area.

Yeah, I searched too but I am hoping for first hand info. There is a lot Chines food around my area too but most of it sucks.

There is one place in Brockton called Chinatown. Their food is, or at least was, extremely good. I used to get takeout once a week. Good old days.

Just behind Frank's. I use to hit Frank's once a week when I was younger.
