Three Days High

Jd · 2003-09-26T17:40:43+00:00

The drive was well worth it. Everything was beyond already lofty expectations. I'll be repeating this whole thing at least once a year from now on. Singlespeeding above 11,000ft is tough, but very rewarding.

Looks like you boys had a lot of fun, and right neighborly of you to welcome that Texan with such

Well, at 1.85m, I would hope that you might feel another emotion instead of "hate".
