People are too suspicious of thieves and crooks.<br /><br />also congrats on your long ride, hopefully it is a stepping stone to expanding your coverage<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Riding the Wet Coast</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-63725626280155862722011-03-23T12:26:02.226-05:002011-03-23T12:26:02.226-05:00Keith, i am jealous of your good weather!

It was also interesting to read about the guy who keeps repainting his bike. I would rather ride it than paint it.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06606446271603142230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-26502547162697559742011-03-21T09:20:18.352-05:002011-03-21T09:20:18.352-05:00Dear Keith:

And suddenly, the farthest you have gone is not quite far enough. I assure you the day is coming when you will look at the map and say, "I wonder what that place looks like." <br /><br />Asking that question lets the genii out of the bottle. Because the next question is, "I could easily get there and back in a day, on a machine that did 85 miles per hour." <br /><br />I like people who have pink flamingoes. I knew a couple, eho were the height of fashion, and who were presented with a pair of flamingoes. They hated them, but felt compelled to put in the garden for a short while to be polite.<br /><br />A week later, the flamingoes were stolen. The couple was relieved... Until they started getting the letters and the pictures. The flamingoes had run away to get married. The first picture was one of them in a top hat and the other in bridal veil. The flamingoes traveled all around the country... Sending pictures of themselves in New York City... Mount Rushmore... Stone Mountain... The Golden Gate Bridge... And then one day, they were back. It was the best joke. And the couple left the flamingoes in the garden after all.<br /><br />The allure of the road is starting to call you... Be careful... Soon it will call you by your first name.<br /><br />Fondest regards,<br />Jack • reep • Toad<br />Twisted RoadsJack Riepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07531160098262862027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-31810657763447520302011-03-20T21:15:50.562-05:002011-03-20T21:15:50.562-05:00Kari,

I'm looking forward to going back later in the summer to see what her yard looks like then. Stay tuned.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and making a comment.<br />~kKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-38765350495075422072011-03-20T21:09:09.685-05:002011-03-20T21:09:09.685-05:00Congrats on taking your longest ride!

I have people come up to me in parking lots wanting to know about her. I've been amazed at how many people I've met by just stopping by. This has been a real bonus of riding.<br /><br />Thanks for taking the time to write a comment.<br />~KeithKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-86220446128508647832011-03-20T20:08:58.722-05:002011-03-20T20:08:58.722-05:00Lori,

There were a number of hills that had to be done in 2nd gear. I only pulled off to the side of the road to let cars by 3x. It was a hoot.<br />~KeithKeith - Circle Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11992667666539622569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-15834079033141158822011-03-20T18:06:27.584-05:002011-03-20T18:06:27.584-05:00Wow, that is a lot of flamingos for one household....Wow, that is a lot of flamingos for one household. It is great that by stopping to take a picture of one small group of flamingos you got to meet the homeowner and received a tour too.<br /><br />Love your header pic too by the way. It is a great color combination with the crocus in the lawn.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081254330907008604.post-23498250720336657472011-03-19T22:49:03.362-05:002011-03-19T22:49:03.362-05:00Thank You, Keith.
