West Coast DIMBY!

[DoubleEagle]

I think that photo was taken somewhere around the 800 mile mark of my trip that weekend. I had also slept a grand total of about 10 hours the previous three nights. And my man Ryan had a make the beast with two backsing bacterial infection that got into his blood! But that silly son of a pregnant dog still rode. So yeah, everyone that bagged out on the ride because they had an in grown toenail or because they were busy washing their mother-in-law's car, please see above.

[/Seriously, its a make the beast with two backsing epidemic in the moto world:
2 months before a ride twelve people yell woooohoooo let's go!
1 week before a ride ten people are stammering "um, well, er, you see . . ." and two guys are yelling wooohooo let's go!
Just be honest with yourselves. You are going or your not. You know within days of hearing about the ride. Why piss around and pretend you're going. A simple yes or no is fine. No shame in either. You wanna day dream about what might happen? Buy a make the beast with two backsing lotto ticket.]

You know the same illness must be spreading.

I have an almost new bike , I'm retired and can go riding almost anytime it's not too hot but I haven't gone for a ride in over 2 weeks.

For some reason , I just don't like the idea of sweating in leather at the moment.

I need to get over it.

With 3 bikes , I should be riding at least twice a week.

May be it's the Osteoarthritis , some unhealed Ribs, and soon to be 61 years old ?

Holy Shit Carl rides


 

Boy, does he ever!  He rode from Santa Barbara up to Carmel (about 275 miles), got a ticket,  pretty much saved my life, slept on a dinky cot in the ER next to my sick ass, got woken up every hour by nurses coming in to check if I was still breathing, warning bells on my HR monitor, a fire alarm, and an orderly "suggesting" he move the meal tray out of the hall and into the room.

He then rode back to SB, got up early the next morning, loaded the three dogs in the truck and with Polpetta drove another 300+ plus miles to DIMBY to make sure my stubborn ass didn't try to ride home on two wheels on monday. 

He then had the pleasure of sleeping in the back of said truck with a stinky dog, and then riding my bike 300+ miles back home to Santa Barbara while I got to take several naps as I was being driven by Polpetta. 

If there ever was a stand up guy who looks out for his friends, it's Carl.  'Nuff said!

Dolph,

Ride when you want. I don't ride everyday or put on a zillion miles every week.  If you aren't going to have fun, why go riding?

Just don't tell people you are going or that you really really want to go but then bag out at the last minute, that's all.

This is what I have to say about all that  ........

Hey, Joel we missed you and Michelle...it's getting too long between hangin' out time  

[SacDuc]

I think this is the point in the DIMBY thread where we should speculate on just how Bacon Junkie got such a bad throat infection.

I can only imagine he got some sort of dirty pork in his throat.

[Polpetta]

Polpetta, sorry we missed you guys too. We got home around 1 am Monday morning and had to get some sleep before Mother went to work.

Hopefully we'll see you guys next time!!

Look forward to it!

Yeah, we knew you had a long trip back, just wanted you to know we wanted to meet you in person
