Wow, guys, what a nice day for our last "last ride!" Thanks for making it fun...great to hear the birds and smell all the flowers and ride in the sunshine one last time before leaving.
You all take care, drive safely, and thanks for making our group such a fun one!

Ok, this is the last last ride...really.
Gang,
Lynn just warned me that as of March 1, there is only valet parking up in Baytowne Wharf. I didn't know that. (When did that start?) So let's meet in the parking lot on the south side of Emerald Coast Parkway (new #98) near the main Sandestin entrance. That would be the east end of Market Shops. We'll bike beachside first and then head under #98 up into bayside for our 10 miles and we'll still eat at Another Broken Egg around 11:30-11:45AM.
Remember to meet by 10:30AM! I can't get into www.weather.com right now. The website appears "broken up." Must be having problems. So I can't see the latest prediction on when the rain will start or if we'll have a windy morning, both of which would cancel the ride.
I'll keep checking up until about 8AM tomorrow morning and modify this post if we have to cancel. Be sure you all check this post on our blog tomorrow, too!
If you get a chance to RSVP on the blog, please do.

Last Ride on the Blog
Hi, everyone who hasn't left the area yet! Here is our last ride, Monday, March 4. (Tuesday looks like rain, Wednesday is our general snowbird meeting, and Thursday I depart...but you all can easily still ride by sending out group emails, since we have the roster Chris and Patty so generously created for us.)
Monday, March 4 -- New Route in Niceville led by Don Anderson
We'll "officially" end our season with a new route and lunch at a new place, recommended by the Andersons. Directions will follow shortly, but we will be meeting at 11AM and parking in an overflow lot across from Giuseppis Wharf Restaurant & Marina, 821 Bayshore Drive, Niceville, FL 32578 if you want to Google it. Lunch afterwards will be at the Front Porch Restaurant just down the street.
RSVP in the comment section below.
Directions from Don:
From Destin the easiest way is to cross the Mid Bay Bridge ($3.00 charge each way), turn left onto state highway 20 (E. John Sims Parkway, follow that into Niceville, turn left on Cedar Ave. S., right on 27th Street, right on Bayshore Drive, parking is on your right after the turn. You can also reach Niceville through Fort Walton by going around the bay.
