The Look

On the way back from Aromas, I got "the look" from Chris. If you're not familiar with what "the look" is, click here to find out. It's not good for the one (me) on the receiving end.

Aromas

Aromas has a great vibe, delicious food, but crappy coffee...go figure, it's a coffee shop?! Oh, don't forget to stop by Aromas on Wednesday night for T. Mata's open mic night...and bring an instrument. If you're lucky, you'll get to hear him pick a few tunes. He's without a doubt a world class player and jazz master. Your ears will thank you!

Golf Cart Race

On the way to Aromas, we got into a race with a golf cart. Of course we pulled a Mark Cavendish on him...he didn't stand a chance.

Thanksgiving Eve Ride

With Thanksgiving tomorrow, and most of my friends being teachers, we all had the day off today. Tony, Chris, Deanna, Veda, and I decided to take advantage of the beautiful fall day and caravan it up to Aromas for some breakfast.

It was a damn beautiful ride...pretty weather, good friends, no timeline, and only one jackass car who almost took my daughter's trailer out.

The fellas met us at the house in Riverside and we trucked it up J. Clyde Morris Blvd, cut through the apartments behind the SPCA, and shot across Jefferson Ave. into City Center. The bike opens up so many areas of the city I never knew existed...just another reason to go by bike!

Here we are getting ready. Tony looks ready to put the hammer down...more pics to follow.

Pimpin' With Ya Helmet On

A little good advice about the benefits of wearing a helmet:

Sunday Leisure Ride

My friends Tony and Myra brought their daughter Charlotte over, and we had a beautiful ride from Riverside to Fort Fun in Huntington Park. The kiddies loved the ride...and the baby swings!

The caravan is:

Tony's Cannondale Capo2 fixie, my wife's Civia Loring, my Cannondale T1000 xtracycle with Veda in her Croozer 737 trailer, and bringing up the rear is Myra's Townie with Charlie Bear in her Burley Bee trailer.

Why would you even consider driving a car on a day like this?
