Yes we made it down the 5 and we must say it was a very lovely day in the State Of California even if we were on the 5. We pulled into the Huntley at 2:15 prettied our selves up/rested and then started the evening at a local pub where we watched our Giants BEAT the Mets to make it to the next round of the playoffs. Good stuff. Bret blew us off, much like Bobby, so there was a solid 15 minutes of sobbing but we are starting to get thick skins. We still love him but he’s buying the next dinner and movie let me tell you. At mile 59.1 Dave and I were singing along to Mandy when all of a sudden SHABLAM something smashed into the windshield and put a big old whole on the darn thing. At first we thought it was a rock from the repaving project they are in the middle of but we realized it was gunfire. Yup we were under attack on the 5. Luckily I have watched every show on Afghanistan and Iraq plus I’ve read every book on that plus we love the survival Alaska shows–so, my pt–we handled the situation calmly and are safe now. The guy in the car that fired up on us looked like this:
Next, as many of you know, I matriculated at Stanford in their Post Graduate Multi Disciplinary Studies Program with a focus in the Photographic arts. My pt, I’m a force to be reckoned with. Well we are walking out of The Grill on Ocean and 20 yards away there is Larry David. The Larry David and this ride is dedicated to Seinfeld and The Highlander! He was getting in his Dark Tesla while tipping the Valet. He was dressed exactly how he does in Curb. I whipped out my camera put all my skills to good use and snapped this winner:
Thank you! That will be going on the xmas card. I really can’t believe I didnt leap in there and get my picture taken with him. I am so angry. But, I didn’t.
We are leaving now, so i must go, but I will introduce another 2 of the riders for RR3 (Yes, it is much bigger). We have Dave Schroeder:
Yes, his likeness was also in the Highlander. Dave is very excited to bang out the ride and has studied the book that I give to all first time participants:
I gotta go, we will ride to Dana Pt over the next 6-7 hours while taking lots of pictures so be excited! Here is the back of the official RR3 Jersey.
