Ten riders, three hours and 80 miles of asphalt and gravel. Topped it off with award winning BBQ at Barrel Oak Winery. Fun was had by all and they want more of the same.

Here’s a video of the Black Friday Ride, After the lunch stop, some of the riders went back to the creek crossing from the last Gravel roads Ride (About 15 minutes into the video).
