Copied over from ADV... said:Announcing The Last Ride of the Year for 2015. I pass this along to invite you to the 19th annual Stagecoach RTE - The Annual Last Ride of the Year. You are invited to join me a few hundred of your closest friends on Wednesday, December 30, 2015 to enjoy some good southern home style food and good fellowship. Some of you may know that my friend Jim Weaver passed away recently. Jim handled the web page for the Stagecoach RTE for me, so until we get a few things worked out, the page will still have last year's info on it. The DATE is always the 30th, but the DAY changes. It is Wednesday, Dec 30th this year. Get all the details at the website and mark your calendars for the 30th. Because we are not able to update the web page right now, please feel free to pass the word to other motorcycle lists or forums that you frequent. We will include a memorial for Jim during the awards ceremony. Mount up, ride to Stockton, Alabama, enjoy some good Southern cooking (the cafe will be serving breakfast for early arrivals as well as the traditional lunch buffet) kick tires, tell lies, and ride home.

I plan to attend on my R1150. Each year one bike gets picked as the extreme cold weather bike. Last year it was the NC and this year it is the R1150. The main night before gathering place is Windwood Inn in Bay Minette. It is probably full by now. There is always a dinner the night before at a local seafood place in Bay Minette. I have attended most years since the second one in 1997. Always a good time. I've seen the weather as fine as 70's and sunny and as foul as 20's and windy. "Normal" is probably low forties somewhere. Lately there are more and more loud cruisers from nearby places who ride in looking like train robbers. There are always some very fine vintage bikes and a gaggle of true Iron Butt Rally types around (not just us sissies that only did the qualification ride).
