Hungover

Day: 101

Is That Cheating?

Day: 94

This morning Aaron was heading north up PCH to catch the 101 home, and I was just heading north to the great whatever. The difference is that he has a car and I was sick of biking these monstrous hills on a windy mountainous road with no shoulder. Guess who tossed his bike in [...]
