Scooby Dooby Doo Ride

 Finally made it out for a ride this past Sunday.  It was a short ride in comparison to many of our other rides but enjoyable and relaxing just the same.

The weekend weather has been spotty the last several weeks.  That and the fact that I sprung a small oil leak put riding on hold for a few.  Good news is I was able to find a local, Rhode Island, dealer that had the appropriate oil filter for a 1985 Yamaha and associated parts in stock.

Friday night was spent doing the oil filter change in anticipation for Sunday's ride.


Sitting at an outside table at our first stop, relaxing and chatting when we heard planes flying overhead.  Turns out the lead plane in the picture above was towing the rear plane, a glider.  Up and up they went to some crazy height then separated.  The glider just hung up there effortlessly, so it seemed from the safety of my seat on the ground.  There were a couple gliders going at the same time and this went on for quite some time.  Looked like fun.


Our second stop was at a place called Scooby's in Clinton, MA.  Some snacks, a little billiards and off we went.

We ended the day with a great cookout.
