Going to Arby's? Walmart?

4/23/24 50.7 miles this morning on the group ride

Happy anniversary And OMG... great minds must think a like. Our 42nd anniversary is tomorrow. We will go out to dinner on Friday. WoBG.... LOVES to use coupons.

Did you tell her that it's your anniversary too ? And Happy Anniversary !!!

There is a section between Barstow & State Line that are 2 lanes as well. The only reprieve is on the uphill grades there are 3 lanes and fortunately the truckers stayed out of the left lane. When I drove to Bakersfield often, it’s 4-5 lanes the whole way and the truckers generally clog 4 of them and sometimes take all 5.

After our dinner at Arby's we went shopping at Walmart.....you can't make this shit up.

Are those like eugoogolizers?

Some days are better than others on the Jersey turnpike. The two lane section is the worst. Today was pretty bad for LLBs.

Yeah, I especially liked that one.

The interstates here in rural IL are 2 lanes. So the trucks are in the left lane a lot. In the Chicago area most interstates are 3 lanes, The trucks can't use the far left lane. Every once in a while... a truck STILL takes the far left lane.

Just got settled in Vegas, WOChrisL & I drove. As we drove mid day traffic was light leaving OC (it can take 2 hours to go 50 miles in drive time) so that was good. Except… I forgot how much of a PITA truckers are. There are only 3 lanes and they take all fucking 3 as the slow guy in the right lane holds up a truck so other trucks pass in the middle lane. Then another trucker decides both trucks are too slow so decides to pass. So net result is right lane truck going 55, middle lane truck going 57 and left lane truck is going 60 and they are tying up traffic for miles. But wait it gets better, apparently when middle lane truck wants to pass in the left lane, he just comes on over regardless if there is a car there or three or not… I was 3rd car in a row of cars in the left lane and car #1 got pushed into the shoulder, car # 2 held is ground hitting the horn & got pushed to the shoulder too! Both cars passed the truck in the shoulder. Anticipating a pile up I backed off and got fucked… Three trucks three abreast 55, 57 & 60 MPH holding up traffic for miles again…. I’d say if the 200 miles of desert roads, half of them were spent stuck behind trucks blocking all lanes.

Not for me .....I stayed on the sidecar. We use the videos to see what went wrong and how we can avoid it happening again. Wo46 said that she knew exactly what she did wrong before she even hit the ground.

The SLA are evil, he was trying to kill you and it backfired.

I used my first hummingbird stamp today too!

If there are any cigarette butts on the ground there… Seymour butts.

Well? How's the weather?

RG has been known to wax his cucumber.

If you had a tandem you and your wife could ride 34 miles to celebrate.

Sorry for you loss. Yeah... I live in rural IL. There are more than a few blind hills on the country roads here. During planting and harvest we avoid the country roads. I we don't, you need to pull to the right and slow down a LOT on a blind hill. I learned this once the hard way when I crested a hill, and a farmer was pulling a planter and it was wider than the entire road. I was glad I was gong slow enough to stop.

Reminds me of when I think it was Bobby Bonds said the difference between him and Willie Mays was his hat stays on.

Your frugal wifey.. somewhere down the road in summer probably will be a lovely dinner.

I guessed jumar.
