OK...

LAST MINUTE ride for tomorrow.

MY HOUSE 10:00 am, route: Tin Barn ride. about a 130 mile ride to say good bye to Frankie before he leaves for China. Be here at 9:30, and you will get coffee, and something to eat, then we can do lunch, and you can GO HOME!

Ride safe,

MB4

PM'd you (I swear we talked about this before, too - senility). I'm going to get dental work done or I would be there. Have FUN!

Soon, we ride.

Crap. Open house. We looked at an apt today that was the size of a matchbox. I'm getting really sick of driving into SF to look at shitty apts. You guys have fun. Next time.

It was Monday originally right, or am I tripping?

I think that was a different ride last week. Wish you were going on this one though.

Great ride today guys. I did over 250 miles there and back.

I made it home without incident. Well, there were several incidents, but I was not involved in any of them.

I did have to split lanes the whole way through the narrows though. That sucked.

Mark and Mary - Thanks for the Coffee and French toast!

There was one really bad accident that I passed just after it happened. I think there might have been fatalities. Looked like a SUV went off the road and hit a tree and it was over on it's side and on fire. There was almost a pileup of looky-loo's that I had to avoid getting tangled up in. I had to swerve onto the shoulder to avoid all the cars locking up brakes and swerving into my lane.
