At literally the last minute we headed over to Bridgewater for the usually-pleasant ride through Somerset County. Arriving a bit late, we were directed to park on the street leading down to the picnic area. That&#8217;s unusual, we usually fill the fields, and I thought it was just overflow due to lateness. But no, the fields were empty &#8211; waterlogged &#8211; and the street easily accommodated the bikes that showed.<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\" style=\"position: absolute; left: -10000px; top: 0px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow-x: hidden; overflow-y: hidden;\">A photographer from the local newspaper was shooting the line as I parked. I&#8217;m on the right alongside my Dyna, Pam&#8217;s in the background on my right (straightening her helmet-hair).
