  11. Brian-

    Outstanding taste in photography. No wonder you were so anxious for me
    to acquire this video gem.

    The Seattle Area Riders (SARS is an appropriate acronym) celebrated
    International Harper Day for the second year in a row and rode the Iron
    Horse Trail from Hyak to Olallie State Park. We had ten Cokers and three
    bicycles...all with riders. Pete Perron (Coker) and his wife Suzanne
    (bike), Bruce Dawson (Coker) and his wife Helen (bike), George
    Pendergast (Coker) and his father Scott (bike), along with Tom Jackson,
    Tom Blackwood, John Childs, Steve DeKoekkoek, Jan Bunger, Jeff Sloan,
    and myself all on Cokers. I will post photos and short video clips in
    the gallery with a link to the folder when I can.

    Thanks to all those folks for making my birthday ride so much fun on
    such a gorgeous day. Due to Helen's dilligence, now many more people
    know about IHD as she goaded them to salute me as we rode by. Thanks
    also to both Bruce and Helen for keeping this celebration international.

    Happy Birthday Harper.
    Was a fun ride. Too bad most of us are starting to forget bits and
    pieces of the ride. Seems we had a case of group senility that medical
    science cannot explain.

  15. My photos and a poorly compressed compilation of all the video I took
    are in 'THIS GALLERY ALBUM' (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/album711) .
    Lots of folks were taking photos and I hope they will post links to them
    here.

    We started out today believing there was a 50% chance of rain and the
    weather turned out to be beautiful. George is usually late but showed up
    early and even brought his dad. Not to let us begin to expect this
    behavior, he dropped one of his cranks before the ride started so we had
    to wait for him to reattach it. His dad tried out BlueShift before we
    ferried the cars up to Hyak.

    This ride, we made it through the tunnel with no UPD's. This must be a
    first. I got to use the train whistle that the Blackwoods gave me and
    then got to listen to a breathtaking rendition of "Happy Birthday" in
    the tunnel in the dark. It brought tears to my eyes...no...that was the
    condensation from the roof.

    We missed Steve Howard this trip who had to bail at the last moment. He
    was sorely missed as were Marie and Miles Blackwood. But I did get cake
    and candle. Jan provided a Hostess cupcake with a singing candle. I ate
    it in one bite. Bruce and Helen gave me root beer, Tom Jackson gave me
    a red bell pepper, and JC made brownies.

    Pork city. Good ride. Good friends. Next year I'll be too senile to plan
    it so Blackwood will take over...yeah, sure.

    I've put my photos in a gallery: 'International Harper Day 2005 by JC'
    (http://gallery.unicyclist.com/IHD2005_by_JC)
    We may want to organize and put all photos in one gallery just so we
    don't have to hunt around several different galleries.

    I haven't done any editing or selecting of the photos. Just a quick
    upload to the gallery. It needs to be cleaned up. I did recompress
    them to make them smaller and more upload/download friendly.

    It would have been a little less to have shown up and brought Gruss with
    you. Make it next year, Scott.

    That would be awesome. Yes we will try for next year. Jerry is
    pretty easy to talk into doing things.

    I just realized I didn't see your name on the CMW list! You will be
    there, won't you?

    I have a conference to attend on Long Island at Brookhaven National Lab
    that interferes with CMW and I have my priorities wrong. I will be
    visiting the Unatics at that time.
