The weather was great today with temperatures in the 60s and cloudy. Rain and colder temperatures are coming in late today but the Polar Bear good-weather window was open and almost every single Polar Bear was here today.

| Bob, Joe, and Betty from GWRRA NJ-F rode with me today. |

| Goldwingers always have an attention getter, in this case perky Brenda, with a Polar Bear hat. |
 |
| I was constantly dodging all the arriving motorcycles. |
 |
| They just keep coming in. |
 |
| I loved the fringe interlaced into the sides of the windshield. |
 |
| Guys and gals enjoying the perfect weather |
 |
| The Inn was very busy and crowded so many just stayed outside. |
 |
| Winter riding is so much fun, even when it's more like spring. |
 |
| Some groups just parked where they could in clumps. |
 |
| Well, if the traffic gets bad, I'll just go across the field. |
 |
| CaptBlack (AKA Superman) rides with Lois. |
 |
| I think he sells ice cream bars on the side. |
 |
| Phil and Nancy chat in the corner behind the Flight B sign-in. |
 |
| Riders are starting to queue up just to get out of the parking lot. |
 |
| Leo arrives late, somewhat bewildered to see so many bikes. |
 |
| The exit backup is getting longer. |
 |
| Some riders are waiting for a break in the traffic. |
 |
| There definitely was a lot of stopping going on. |
