[QUOTE="101stpathfinder, post: 1411402, member: 18625"] Well, I finished the ride and the riding went well. My credit card was hit by a scanner (Again) and my finish receipt was a total drama scene. So tired of people in this world that are dishonest and choose to steal from others instead of living an honest life. The final planned fuel stop had thugs trying to rob customers at the pumps. My card had been scanned at the Jacksonville fuel stop, so it did not work. Tried to go inside but the owner locked the doors and was waiting for the police to arrive. I ended up riding 3 or so miles away for a finish receipt. My plan was to ride each weekend and attain 100k miles in 1 year. (100k club) Now I am not so sure all the time and money is worth it. I think I will wait until I retire and do the ride with fun outings instead of "Task rides." either way, another BBG is done and I have 10 more rides to do this year. Final numbers were 20 hours, 31 minutes, 1523 GPS miles (GPS was not turned on until I was underway about 5 miles) Temps ranged from 49 to 66 degrees, which is cold for me… but manageable. Next ride… not sure right now. Jax party in March and Spring Equinox ride for sure. (March 20th) [/QUOTE]
