Cretins & Nutterbuckets, and all the rest of you San Diegans! Thanks for being such wonderful hosts to a bunch of fucking troubbble! Sorry about the problems we created before the ride, at the stops, at the warehouse party and at the Pancake Breakfast.

But I think you guys knew what we are capable of. We'll see you guys soon!

Dear San D Ya Go....

Thanks! That was such an awesome ride! I would personally like to thank God for the weather because we all know that guy is totally against fun. All in all, this weekend totally ruled!

Drew: Thanks for giving us bums a place to sleep! If you ever need a place to stay, you know the drill. Anyone from SD is welcome to the floor here, as long as you don't mind the cats.

I'm still getting over the suicide of Jennifer. I think I'm still in the first stage of grieving, "DISBELIEF"

I first want to thank the Mayor of San Diego bike culture Tommy, for putting this altogether. Lending me one of his babies at the last minute (that is a fun ride, I'm might get me one of those cycleX). Words can't describe how cool you are.

Drew, for being one hell of an Ambassador.

The Halo House for hosting us, for breakfast, the day after the Apocalyptic.

It was fabulous finally meeting the artist extrodinare, 'METAL Unicorn' in person. I look forward to having you paint me some shoes, (we will get that together real soon), thanks for the Velo Culture mag,,,,(RBI try to steal your card, you gave me). Seeing the Trainwreck, Seth again, is always a treat. Saint Randy (patron saint of Bicycling in San Diego), I don't know what I like better,.your bike basket, or your hair....they both Rock.

Co-announcing the Dodge ball game was fun, didn't get your name, but you got mad MC skills. (LA kids should take a cue and not be scared to grab the mic, I loved having twenty hands trying to grab the mic from me, to say something.)

All the other kids, I meant from SD, you are all precious, especially at Dodge ball. That game was a draw, we still have to have a rematch.

From LA, thanks to SPOOK and MOOK, for looking out for the Big One. Mike, for picking up Tommy's bike and taking care of my jacket. Annie, you take some serious sexy pictures. Matt, sorry I didn't get your tape back to you. Cole, sorry for that late night message, I was worry about the CH. Jane and everybody who puts up with my non-sense at these events, I love you all.

Thanks to the weather, for keeping away the fair weather friend, and bringing out the true San Dieagan believers.

Everything was perfect except for the absents of Katie Kelly :-{"""'''''''''''(tears)

Now, we gots to do a Southern California invasion of Austin TX.................who's in.............Mission Hills bikes, has enough employees, you can take a few days off.
