    It was a very hot and dusty ride today, some rain sure would be a pleasant sight. Regardless we had good times out there as usual. Nice to meet Schecky finally also! Our little breakfast/lunch spot turned out to be pretty darn good grub too!!! Now its time for a nap.

    blazin' hazen' out there today. we had 10 bubbs and finished the ride with 9 i think. was cool to finally meet the scheckster, although we are still debating if he cut out early cause he was "hungry" or "hungover"...sheck, can you chime in and end this debate for us please. :D

    gouge has some photos he may post, as well as calEpic snapped a few on rattlesnake.

    "mustard" was the post ride grubb, and it was tastey times.

    Ahhhh yes, Mustard was the name. Whatever it was the hottest chic in the world was there and had us all drueling :eek:

    And I'm on the "hungry" vote list for the Schecky debate :D

    Great ride today, fellas. Nice to meet Shecky and PHAT TIRE as well. Sorry you had to bug out so quick, Shecky, but no worries--we've all been there.

    Oh, and to those who skipped Mustard afterward: dummkopf move. Killer grub and beautiful scenery were enjoyed by all present.

    "dummkopf move" I like that :lol:! Indeed though, grub and scenary were spot on!

    Forgot about craigger's camera antics on rattlesnake!

    That reminds me about the hefty rattler we almost ran over right after "I think I can". I think it was another Red Diamond, but I'm not the snake-guy.

    I was pulling for the "hungover" camp Shecky! Yep, we've all (or most of us) have been there!#-o

    Great ride today with a nice turnout. Sorry to hear about the hangover Scheck. Four words: Chorizo and egg burrito.

    It was 90 by the time Aldo, Lance and myself finished. The rest deposited their quarters in the Tampon dispenser and cut it short to drink beer, eat pizza and watch the hotties. :D

    Here are a few pics from the ride with a special guest appearance by a little rattler with fresh scales. He was daring us to pull him out by the tail but no one volunteered.
    • Turner Rob on the real line
    • Dino on the real line (nice farmer tan bro!)
    • Von Diggity on the real line (it's a little more challenging on a little bike with little tires isn't it?)
    • Ladd Jasper on the real line
    • Banana Seat on the "P" line
    • LBMtb couldn't decide which line to take and dabs for the camera
    • Phat Tire on the "P" line
    • Eco Dork on the "P" line
    • Ass shot
    • Pissed off snake

    The Rattlesnake got him. We salvaged his camelbak and his money though so it's cool :beer:

    :lol: Jk, his hangover caught up with him and he bailed after the first climb.

    Yeah, thanks for posting 'dem pics. Good ones!

    Shoot, I was pretty psyched that I cleaned the "P" line and didn't even know that other line was there! :lol:

    Yep, sorry to have to go as well, but 'tis the way things go I guess.

    It's been one heck of a good ride out here though! Can't say I didn't enjoy it or take advantage of it!:bang:


    We'll definately post the ride for Sunday!
