    I rode about 37 miles across Memorial weekend in Lake Havasu, Az and then came home and the wife and I got a small cold. It's back on for tomorrow.

    I didn’t ride my bike today. I did weed abatement and grading at one of my properties getting it ready to sell. I did ride my Backhoe however!:inlove: But it’s not the same...:(

    Didn't ride, but did a lot of ride-related things.

    Got my 8yo daughter a new bike. Her 5th one (two push bikes, a 16" pedal bike, a 20" mt bike and now a 24" mtb). This one was pricey, so I hope she likes and wants to ride. Ghost Kato 24 from REI.

    This evening I went to the Laguna Canyon Foundation fundraiser. Hobnobbed with Hallie Jones from LCF and a few local thugs including some former world champion dude, but more importantly, the one and only @tbarnesarc.

    Here's my proof:

    I hope you walked your bike up there.... Or I'll have to report you for misposting.

    That's one hell of an expensive drying rack...

    Congrats. I did want them to win, but I wanted Vegas to win one more game for their amazing season. Then Caps could have won at home. I guess they didn't want to wait.

    Quick drive to Tustin for the REI garage sale... replaced the tent lost in Alabama Hills camping incident, picked up a Big Agnes ultralight for bike camping, and the best find was a pair of silk tights for $8... a hole in the leg, but couldn't pass 'em up!

    Cuzz I spent the afternoon at the Newhall DMV:thumbsdown:. That's gotta be the worst sh!thole known to man:poop:. Had to park my truck about 5 blocks away and hope I didn't get shot and that my truck was still there when I got back. My 2:00 appt took almost 3 flipping hours. Now I'm drinking beer and trying to forget about that awful place and all the damn freaks that were there so I may not ride tomorrow:confused:.

    I've heard at least 3-4 people complain about how horrific the DMV is lately. I sure hope I never have to go there in person.

    The only time I've been inside a DMV in the last 20 years was to drive my daughter to her driving test and wait.

    Hold your horses, I'd like to dispute those allegations... :whistling:

    It had been umpteen years of renewing through the mail for me but they finally wanted me to go in for vision test and a new photo. I chose the Pasadena DMV location and I made my appointment for as early as they had available on the day I was able to go (appointment made well in advance). I got there about 20 minutes early. I checked in and they immediately called me up to the line which was only two people long. Meanwhile, all the jackasses who did not make an appointment were sitting on their asses (thumbs buried deeply) waiting for their number to be called. There must have been 30+ jackasses, too. So, I gave my info, paid the fee, did the vision test, and then I was sent to the photo room where there was about a half dozen people in line. The photographer was a true comedian. He had a way to make all the grumps in line smile big for their photo and he had all of us laughing in unison. :laugh:

    Anyway, I was out of their BEFORE my actual appointment time came up! :eek:

    So trust me, make your appointments for as early in the morning as they offer... :D
