Yeah, yeah, I know. Just move Godzilla a bit closer to the camera when you take a shot! I also misspelled Jerry's name-- very bad of me and have asked Richard to correct or else I'll get spanked hard here. Sorry Jerry.

Steve,

Thanks for everything!

Sorry about the crazy call yesterday. We were both in "Professional Mode" and not "Rider Mode" I think  ;D

Typo - it grew 10" or so

Tell me you didn't really say that.

Is "typo" generic Enzyte?   ;D ;D
Great stuff guys.  Thanks for blogging it up Steve!

No problem on the call, Jerry, it just took me a moment to shift gears.

For all you guys riding, I'm really going to rely on you to be in touch so I can do regular updates with photos and "tall" stories about what went down on your part of the trip. Please be thinking about "what's interesting" or "a funny thing happened" or whatever. Just writing up "we started here and ended there and stopped for gas three times" is sleep therapy, not stuff to sustain a good story, which this is, over the coming months.

Thanks all and ZOOM ZOOM -- it off the staring line tomorrow!

Great job!!!!!! It caught the essence of the group. Off center people who figure out how to make things work.

So, the strategy is to lie to people you are asking for help?

I think I'll be busy going for a ride.

Good luck!
