Wow... what a loooooooong day.

1st things 1st... Thanks Chad for taking us out there. My wife liked the loop more than I did, so I may be taking her over that way (Across 50) in the future.

Well... here is the scoop on what happened today...

Josue, a local friend, wanted to invite a few friends to come check out the North Run. Well as you saw today, friends have friends that have friends that have other friends & before you know it, a crap load of guys showed up. When I saw that group all I could think of was... damn this sucks. I felt really bad. I did talk with Josue this evening & we both agreed that was crazy... wont happen again...

Anyways... the one guy that was not expected to show up, did... or so I am told, and he immediately felt the need to show-off. A bad sign. The guy did not seem to like that the group was staying together & passed everyone without knowing the way... not good.

Later the same person, looking back quickly approaching a corner runs off the road, into a ditch. The front end sinks & he is shot into the air into some nearby water. It all happened to fast that he would have drowned had his friends not rushed to his aid... As you can imagine, my jaw dropped as I heard this story.

The guy was fine, a little hurt considering, but was able to ride his damaged ride back home.

So no pictures... but Josue & I will have him (the scooter camera guy) come again for some shots. He is looking forward to it. And this time it'll be just him & not that huge crazy group.

Sorry about holding you guys up a bit, it was good experience for my wife & she is really glad you guys didn't seem one bit bothered by having to wait for her. I thank you as well, for putting up with the inconvenience. We had a great time,,, Thanks!!!

Mike was there BUT_ASS_NAKED!!! kick ass... was glad to see him come out.

Until next time guys... next week I am doing a slow run with the wife. So see ya'll in 2
