September First: The Shirts Are In

Our Destination:  Pizzeria Pulcinella
The Day:  Thursday Sept. 1
The Time:  leaving Madison Valley right about 6pm as it was a bit longer jaunt (10 miles each direction)
I feel almost as if there should be two posts for this stage because we had two teams of bikers both of which had an amazing trip down to South Lake for some certifiably (seriously) Neapolitan pizza. So, feel free to share your own experience in the comments if you wish.  Beautiful day to say the least and our bike ride was right on the lake for approximately half of the way there.  Right about the time we past Flying Squirrel Pizza we started to wonder whether it was going to be worth it.  

But it was.  It really was.  The atmosphere is unassuming.  The anti-pasta was a plate of yummy picked treats.  And the pizza was classic and very tasty.  There was a tandem locked to the stair rail.  Given that it's a little late in the season other bikers on the road were very fit and the sun went down pretty early, so we left pretty quick after eating to make the most of dusk.  What a great ride.





This was the scary kitty we saw on the way home.  It literally appeared out of nowhere  at Malaika's feet.  At least two of us gave a little shriek.
