Diva Ride to Yalaha Bakery

Sunny and 70s - what a great day for a ride!
On Saturday, February 20, 2010, we met up at Panera Bread at 9:30 for our monthly Divas-only ride.  We took some beautiful backroads around Lake Apopka and then through some of Lake County's sweeping country roads, ending up at Yalaha Bakery for lunch and pastries.  This was one of our first sunny, warm days after an unusually cold winter in Central Florida this year.  It was so nice, some of us decided to take the loooooong way home...



Riders meeting to go over the route.


Ready to ride! 

A brief stop along the way.

Alfresco dining at the bakery. 

Of course we had to gawk at everybody else's rides, including the three-wheeled kind.


One last photo op at the bakery before heading back.

Julie's Book Signing Event

Some of the Divas headed out to Barnes & Noble in Altamonte for fellow Diva Julie Compton's book signing for Rescuing Olivia, her second novel.  Not only is Rescuing Olivia a fantastic, hard-to-put-down read, but, as motorcycle riders and Floridians, we can all identify with the main character, Anders, riding through familiar Florida roads on his bike.

Great book, Julie.  Your Chrome Diva sisters are proud of you!
