Today. Can today be summed up in one simple post. Methinks not. I will however try to keep it short and to the point. Started off w a quick ride of the loop w Nic, then got breakfast for all 6 girls at the house. Hen me n Pat rode east to Fletcher to link up w John Tulankos crew. Headed south to Lebanon n linked up w my sister. We rode into the hallowed grounds of the Powell Farm for the Hillclimb of all Hillclimb, the Legendary Devils Staircase situated in beautiful Oregonia Ohio. We then danced thru the thousands of bikers from parts unknown to our favorite piece of land in the valley, right at the first lip of the hill opposite the announcers stand. We usually sit on the observation side of the valley, but Ive longed to be back where the action is, and where the sweet smell of nitro methane fills the air and accelerates the adrenaline of the mortal soul. We witnessed several record setters, and several spectacular spills. I failed to capture the wildest ride/major get-off on film, but it will play in my mind every single time I even THINK of building a Hillclimb bike, sooooo Ill prolly build it to fit my sister. She winked at me several times today because she KNOWS she could do it. I know she could, she would tear that staircase up Parker style, but that would only lead to me wanting to do it, and we ALL know how that would turn out, flashes of wheelchairs w stickers and neon lights eh. Well, the other memorable mention, and Im sure not too many brother/Sister team could duplicate, we BOTH peed on the same tree today. Yep. Hey, I stood guard for her, and I fended for myself, but its a fact, and Im proud. The lunch faire was Fresh Cold meat wraps w Paydays n Beef jerky n spicy peanuts. A great time was had by all. We parted company w the Tulanko party as we headed out early so my sis and her crew could attend Brian Regan tonite. Pat n Matt n Me kicked the tires and lit the fires and headed north via the super-Slab, made it home in 35 minutes less than the trip down. Me n Jess n the girls n Kipper headed to the farm to celebrate Jess n Jeremy bdays. We then came back here so we could all watch The Walkin Dead. Now, Ive stayed up till midnite so I can check Jennas sugar. What a day, what a ride, life is just a ride, saddle up, throttle up, and just RIDE! Told ya it was gonna b a great day tater, Peace and Love from Ptown.
