Saturday September 10th, 2011 Biking & Lobster Pot

September 13, 2011

Saturday September 10th, 2011
We’ve had a bit of rain since returning from Maine.
We were all going through bike riding withdrawal after riding
all those miles everyday…. today we ventured out on a club ride.

P1000760
part way through the ride we came across a small obstacle…

My bike had to go to the hospital —
the cable that controls the back cassette with all the
gears came loose & I only had 3 gears (vs 30).
I need all the help I can get.
We ended up only riding 15 miles instead of
the scheduled 40. It was a little rainy anyway.

Each year the Hatboro Rotary puts on a Lobster Pot fund raiser.
A few were asking WHAT DOES the ROTARY DO??
here is a synopsis:

The main objective of Rotary is service — in the community, in the workplace, and throughout the world. Rotarians develop community service projects that address many of today’s most critical issues, such as children at risk, poverty and hunger, the environment, illiteracy, and violence. They also support programs for youth, educational opportunities and international exchanges for students, teachers, and other professionals, and vocational and career development. The Rotary motto is Service Above Self.

I LIKE LOBSTER! but many don’t —
they also offered steak ..

corn on the cob, salad & dinner roll

I got 10 people to come out & play.
Plus we had other neighbors come out too.
