Title: The Annual Last Ride of the Year - Stagecoach RTE
Post by: Chuck & Susan on December 25, 2020, 10:26:10 AM
First let me say MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR to every one. And I hope everyone and their families are safe and well.

The Annual Last Ride of the Year - Stagecoach RTE is on this year and on Dec. 30th as most years. This year is on Wednesday. No matter the weather, Rain or Shine, Hot or Cold.

Here is the Facebook link:

I am planning on ridding up and as years past would like to see if anyone would like to meet at the Rouses Market at 6729 Spanish Fort Blvd, Spanish Fort, AL 36527.

I'm thinking I and maybe Susan (She is supposed to work) will get there about 9am and get a cup of coffee from the donut shop. We can be KSU about 9;30am for the stagecoach.

We have met with folks in the past here for the ride and it seems to work out great. I know time are bad this year but this is a outside event for the most part and free. If you have lunch that would be the only cost.

I know I have been AWOL from the site for awhile but that is about to change and hope to catch up with the great folks on this site!

If interested post up and let us know. But It's on!

A friend mentioned going and I told him I thought last year's was the final gathering.  He checked, and I soon started seeing the notices about it so I'm glad I was mistaken.

Unfortunately, I cannot take off work for it but I know a group will be heading down from Montgomery HD

Thanks for getting a photo Greg. And great to see ya again. You and several hundred other bikers.

The newly paved parking lot was full and as normal overflowing into the station across the street. And the weather was totally perfect. I thought the numbers would be down with it being held on a Wednesday and with covid, But there was a good turn out. The Stagecoach was limiting indoor seating and there was a line waiting to get inside. Greg and I just enjoyed staying in the parking lot. Talking and enjoying all the pretty toys people where ridding.

I was looking for ya Justin But I guess you didn't make it. Or we totally missed ya. I'll catch up with you soon somewhere.

If anyone wants to add it to their calendar, This event is held on Dec. 30th each year. No matter the day of the week or what the weather is like. Should try it sometime.

Just seen a report of todays event on WKRG TV5 in Mobile. Chris Best, A.K.A. Biker Dad was there and posted 2 videos. The 2nd video show's a lot of the raw shots of the event.
