This is from the trip Theo and I took to Agoura Hills CA. as training for the upcoming bike season.
The group at Malibu Beach
Our bikes in the hills.
This is my Grandad, he is turning 93 in a few weeks. He just had carotid endarterectomy 12 hours before this picture and here he is anxiously awaiting discharge. He looks forward to every new day.
This was outside an ice rink in Jersey City, NJ. I was there watching my 14 year old son play a high school hockey game. I have two teenage children that have never used a payphone which seems strange because I used them regularly as a kid.
Then we got muddy.
In his final act, a levitation from tragedy to comedy; a comic genius of his species tells his last joke.
I went over to Theo’s for some garage therapy. We worked on stripping the frame of his 900SS Ducati for repairs. He has taken the bike from…
to this,
and this,
and this,
all so he could fix this.
I suggested this instead,
but he insisted on a more “upscale” repair ;-).
South County Trailway with Theo.
First ride on the Jamis 2009 Xenith I had built with all used parts.
An after work quickie.
