[splat]

what a glorius day for a ride. I wanted to do the Bigelow ride down in CT, but Family obligations early ment the ride had to be close to home and later. well There was a ride at Heritage park at 11am. was going to be tight , but I could make and and Did. !

there were 5 of us , Me, Imploded, Quo_fan , BadDNA and Jamie.

Well To start things off one of the riders who will remain Nameless, Locked his keys in his truck , with his helmet in the truck .

well we had Bike tools , what more do you need to reak into a Pickup truck ?
first steal the Antena off of the truck

Next get out your PArk Tire levers , and pry the door open at the top, and use the antena to unlock the door .

Anytime... I knew it was going to be a good time when we topped out goat hill and most everyone was just so excited to be climbing 30 seconds into the ride.
