However this is when things got a little intreesting , On our way Back , just as we got under the power lines , Vozz and I spotted something on the ground . it was a wallet , that was torn to Hell. Had a Divers License , Credit cards ,Health care , etc etc , and about $100 in Torn Bills Lying around . we picked it up.

Nice pix as always, Splat. That wallet is pretty weird. I wonder what the story is behind the shredding of it. OK let's start theorizing; there was this guy scuba diving, a firefighting helicopter scouped him up and dropped him in the powerlines during one of those fires. I know that sounds ridiculous. How did the wallet end up there? Well of course, he had it in a dry bag. You guys didn't find the body?

You missed the part about the shark biting him in the ass just as the the helicopter scooped him.

Looks like another fun Nam ride. I did about 12 miles at Foxy....or did I(no pics, but lots of witnesses)?

In Jeff's defense, he called Friday night, I just missed his call. Maybe it was because I was too busy being embarassed by the video Splat decided to show in front of my mother! Great ride and riding, but no Riding! Hmmmm...

Good times guys ... that TNT trail is gonna rock!

I did really smack that tree. Ouchie.
Glanced my lower jaw and broke a molar. :plthumbsdown:

To my credit ...
I did get back on and did that drop again and a few more that day.
It's a case for a full face ... which I now have on order. ;)

There will be a dental visit before the next ride. :(

Thanks for the "inspiration" Dave. :thumb:

We need more lemmings! ;)
