Mark, Skiplate and I met up at 9:00AM Sunday at the Dunkin Donuts. One of the members of the rideohio.org board was going to ride a track day at Mid Ohio so we decided to take a ride out there and watch him take some laps.

Here is the star of the Ride Ohio board, 100Ohio! All winter he worked on this bike and posted pictures of his progress. It really is a spectacular bike.
President Bush today announced that the long awaited “rebate” checks from the IRS will be going out ahead of schedule. “Starting Monday, the effects of the stimulus will begin to reach millions of households across our country,” Bush said Friday in remarks on the South Lawn of the White House.
Tony Hayward, Group Chief Executive of BP, could not be happier. “Many people have been cutting back on their driving. We expect that this extra money will allow people to start driving to work again instead of walking and riding bicycles. This, of course, is great news for me personally. Bush could have really made things much simpler by just sending everyones “rebate” to us directly, but I guess the illusion of having extra money to spend appeals to the voters. Fortunately, we had a very good year last year so the delay until the money actually funnels to us will not cause us a financial hardship.”
I am so sleepy.
The winter was so long and so cold, and now that warm weather is here I am going crazy. I’ve been out on the motosickle almost every night this week. Truth is, I didn’t even have the energy to go out on the bike, but I just could not stop myself. The threat of colder weather next week also had me out and about because I knew next week probably will not be so good.
Last night a few of us from the Ride Ohio forum went to a fundraiser that Skidplate organized. It was called Crazy Bowling and it was like regular bowling but you had to roll the ball backwards, or bowl with your eyes shut, or bowl with your non-dominant hand. Everyone seemed to have a great time and they raised around $1,000.
