3rd Annual GR Road Ryders Poker / Dinner Ride
this is a MYSTERY RIDE as well ... the route we take is gorgeous (but only I know where we're going - that way if I get lost ... nobody else will know). The dinner stop, again only me (oops, I told Lori today, may need to tie her up till Saturday) they have great food in a quaint little town. Even the "way" that we will be playing the poker hands, no one will know who wins what ... until we are at dinner. The BEST HAND 'may' not win the most $$. This will be fun !
September 27th .... with September 28th as a rain date
First off - weather looks to be outstanding this week-end ... sunny, mid-seventies, VERY LOW chance of rain ... for all THREE days !!
Planning to start meeting up at 11:00 am, hittin' the happy trail at NOON !!!
Approximately 2 3/4 hours of riding time, with 2 stops along the way. Great roads, couple lakes to be seen, miles & miles of rivers we'll be scootin' along, some tree-covered stretches, lots of turns. But no tight twisties, sorry - we're not in Tennessee.
We will be doing a 50/50 drawing as usual ... buck apiece or 6 for $5.00
Also will have a FREE raffle drawing ... each poker hand bought will receive 1 raffle ticket. GR sponsor - Shawmut Hills Sales - are donated a few items, and we have a couple other items ... so it should be fun.
The POKER HAND - $10.00 each, can ONLY play ONE hand per person. There will be the option of purchasing a bonus card ($5) at our 1st stop as well. I'm going at $10, just to help keep the costs lower - but obviously, our cash prizes will be lower as well. I also anticipate that we will have several winners (at smaller amounts), rather than one big & happy winner - while the rest of go home crying.
The "way" that you will win will be explained clearly at dinner - this will be a surprise to all - but will be FUN !!!
The dinner itself, and drinks, are on you.
The whole purpose of today, is for fun with each other, great friendships to form, enjoy the great outdoors on 2 wheels, see some scenery that maybe you haven't seen before, and to get home safe and sound - what more could you want ??
The link to Johnson Park in Grandville, MI is below
I did post a couple of hotels - one at the start of the ride and one at the end of it - with names & phone numbers - for any who plan to stay over. I might combine this into a 2-day event next year, depending on how this year goes.
Can't Wait !!
Thanks for reading this - hope to see you all on Saturday !!
