Man, it's been many moons since I've ridden Pelican Island, but there's a funny story that goes with the "why"; I'll share it sometime. Welcome aboard, Rusty, and welcome to the wonderful world of retirement; now get ready to work your butt off, LOL! I retired last year, and I've been busier now than ever before. Now that the weather is getting better, riding is definitely back on the schedule, so we'll get this thread going again for sure. As you can see, I'm just next door in La Porte, and I've been itching to get out to good ol' East Texas, so we'll put a plan together soon.
