... at that bum working on that shitty old bike in the rain getting wet.. Wait that's me .. What an idiot.

Got a new cycle electric generator and regulator for a good price then it started dumping rain when I went to change it.

Kenny Roberts

Went over to Kon Tiki motorcycles in Pacific Beach, full of nostalgia. Found this old cycle news with this Kenny Roberts Article in it and this photo of him on his BMX bike.

Moreland Choppers Solano

Rain couldn't keep up but it got here finally. Moreland Choppers in Solano hooked me up with a Cycle Electric Generator for a good price. Hung out with Mr. Moreland at the swap with some other ol' timers. Got shown the lowdown on how to start a big twin with a mag by setting the kicker so you get the full rotation and top of the compression stroke and fattest spark. If that works like he said... then that may one of the best things I've gotten at a swap in a long time.

Big 3 SD

Checked out the big 3 swap in San Diego. It was after 5 and technically over but people were hanging out, drinking and bar b Q'n. Its huge and would take a long time to walk it. I got my bike in shh don't tell anyone, and putted around looking for the bike stuff . Hung out with Mr. Moreland of Moreland choppers and his friends.
Supposed to rain today so guess the rain followed me down again sorry A!

My phone ran out of juice.
Staying at my old friend Dan's place in SD. Known him since I was 16 more like a brother to me. Had quite a few adventures all over the world together.

My generator light came on and sure enough the battery isn't being charged. Bike made it to Dan's place and didn't leave me stranded. At least I know the warning light works! I was too tired to deal with it and passed out on Dan's couch I hadn't slept since tuesday night as I left at 730pm wed after working most of the day. Got into LA at noon. The 5 had stop and go traffic all the way to San Diego. I stopped at San Onofre to check out the waves as I was feeling too tired and frazzled to deal with lane splitting but eventually got back on the 5 after an hour or so. Lane splitting the last 50 miles of stop and go to the stadium where the swap was, but got there after 5.
1200 miles later was feeling a bit delirious from lack of sleep, passed out on Dan's couch after he made us some food.
