Never trade the thrills of living for the security of existence
Wow, what a trip that was! Every time I go to the Gap I have more fun than the last time!
Soon I will post a writeup and some pictures of the redecorated rooms at the Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort, and I have an interesting story to tell about a Gold Wing that crashed at Gravity Cavity, but for now all I am going to talk about is the trip itself.
Well, I am finally making my first trip of the year to Deals Gap!
I am going to be trying something new this time. I have a camera phone, and I am going to upload pictures throughout the trip from the phone.
Check often because I plan on uploading pictures all through Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday.
I don’t know how well this will work out, but I figured I would try it and see how it goes!
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.”
