Super Bowl Sunday Ride

Super Bowl Sunday is great...when it starts with a fun dirt ride with good friends. This morning we all met at Reseda, and ran the sixteen miles up Caballero Canyon, across Mulholland, up Cliffside Trail (yeah, no s**t "cliffside..is 4" wide "cliffside" enough?) out to Sullivan ridge, then down the picturesque Sullivan Canyon Trail. Unfortunately for us, we then had to turn around and reverse everything we just did. With 2,400 feet of climbing in 15 miles or so, it's not a bad little cruise to do before the beer drinking begins. The ride up Cab. canyon is only about a mile and a half long, but gains 924 feet!
In attendance today were "No-Way"Jay, Vegs Bob, Taylor, Ara, Jesse and Katie, and Mike and "Big Willie" McClure. Jay cracked me up when, near the bottom of Sullivan Canyon, a knuckle head in a full-face thought it would be wise to tailgate Jay. we let him by, becuase he apparently thought he was fast. He probably killed himself later, because Jay was up his arse furter than a Tijuana tape worm. Good times, good times.
It was about four and a half billion degrees here today, and I sweated so much I created a large Thunderhead over the Santa Monica Mountains. After the ride was all over, I had to drink about seventeen bottles of beer to recover. Thanks to everyone who came from the south, the west side, the north, the north east, and the far east to get here for the ride today. Ara even rode from Glendale to my house BEFORE we rode...that's like twenty miles before doing the fifteen, then he rode HOME again after! Frikkin Armenians.
