Road Rally Date Set for November 7

Submitted by admin on Tue, 09/22/2015 - 10:37am

We are busy working out the details on this year’s plan! Driving has been a big part of that; straining the brain has been the other part! Barely down the road the other day have we spotted a motorcycle coming at us? We were both approaching a stop sign so we were not up to full speed. He had no helmet, but had a full face mask; like Halloween, scary movie, maybe a burglar disguise! It was weird!!
