After an organized recruitment effort by a couple of members.. we departed from Durham DD at 11:00ish and took rt 17 to 79 to Higganum Rd, to 154 south, a left onto 82 and a stop at the DD to pick up Tom Y. From there we went over the bridge to Goodspeed Opera House, a quick left up 149, followed that to RT 66 then another quick left onto RT 85N all the way to Lake St. Missed a turn or two and a couple of U-turns later we rolled into Rein's parking lot.
11 Bikes and 12 riders and 1 minivan showed up at the Durham DD, but somehow we grew a bit and had a total of 17 eaters when we sat down at Rein's. The food was excellent, place was a bit crowded and they didnt accomadate us all together but somehow we managed to eat the food anyway! There were lots of pickles, overstuffed sandwiches, some tongue was eaten.. and the best onion rings Ive had in over 20 years.
After lunch, some folks went their own way, a group headed over to Hot Leathers in South Windsor where more money was spent on vests, facemasks and helmets etc. The route back was Rt5 to Rt2 to Rt17 and a final coffee stop before heading home. Weather was really nice for the entire ride.... and Rein's Deli is definitely worth a return trip.
