The wheelchair guy is awesome. The crowd looks a bit sparse.
What are you looking foreward to?
- Thread starter notright
- Start date
He really is, check him out on youtube.
The crowd was thin, some of the pictures were before it started and before alot of people showed up, and the first 5 rows are all empty for safety.
The place was about half full, but it was a Sunday night too.
Either way, I'll take it...I hate crowds.
I was hoping it wouldn't be sold out.
I'm looking forward to the coming full disclosure that 'they' are here.
Unless they are Jews
You gotta admit, they have a big hardon when it comes to their half-brothers.

That is due to the fact you can't refute it with anything that makes sense.

It's 11:55 Pm and I'm looking forward to a pushbike ride through the night. I'll head out for an hour, at about 1:30 when the HWY is empty and all the animals are quiet. I used to love riding motorcycles through the night when the roads were free of wildlife but it's too dangerous now. You see only the odd roadkill but I don't want to roll the dice @ 120km/h.
I remember an inspirational quote from a small book I read years ago, a diary with a quote at the top of every page. One was "You can't change the wind, but you can change your sail" and that's what I do, I ride the pushbike and get the same experience as well as some exercise. Well it's not the same experience, because you are exercising, but I also have the e-bike with it's thumb throttle and that is the same experience basically. I'll take the phone tonight and see if I can get a nice pic or two, have been threatening to do that for ever now.

I love riding motorcycles at night time, and most of the critters here wait for you to go by before they cross the road, lol...most of them...
I didn't take the pix, it was too warm for a jacket and I had nowhere to stuff the phone. Lots of gear on the bike, but tools and water and a spare tube etc etc, all stuffed into a faux drink bottle and underseat pouch. When I take the electric bike I don't even have room for water! Water is overrated anyway, you can go a few hours without it even exercising. Smokes is another matter, I always have room for them 
I get funny looks sometimes, sitting by the road beside my bike having a durry. People are so stupid, they think the two are incompatible but 99% of them couldn't ride to the end of their street without being out of breath. I remember this old client who was very active but had a bit of a cough, the doctor told him he had emphysema, and he told me about it this day. I said you should start walking around the block and work those lungs mate. Oh no, he couldn't do that, he had emphysema! Well he had it the week before and that didn't stop him then. Idiot.

We had a guy in our team that smoked like a freight train but would pass people on runs.....he was a gazelle and we often thought how fast he would be if he wasn't a smoker.......I didn't take the pix, it was too warm for a jacket and I had nowhere to stuff the phone.

Our leadership at the time cut him from the recce teams as they didn't want smokers on those teams as they needed to reman covert...so he was placed on an assault team and did very well....he could 'run and gun' with a cigarette in his lips if he wanted to.....
I remember once he ran out of cigarettes and after we had an engagement he was going around searching for cigarettes...he found some from God knows where.....
I've lost touch with him over the years though....
I lost my dad (2005) to emphysema and he smoked to the last day of his life......even when he had less than 15% lung capacity left he wouldn't quit.
