I couldn't make it, but I know a few braced the weather. Especially @tripple3 !

Thanks Mike! Made it to 7-11 on Chapman, before i pulled in for shelter.
Checked the @oddball meet-up spot at 9:30, they're rolling already.

There they are!

There's my bike! Ready for anything!

@cyclingday Marty @Wolfmac Sean @rustystone2112 out in front...

Worth it! Thanks again Marty @cyclingday for buying PANCAKES!!!

Just a couple bikes @ssum2 brought out when we rolled up in the rain. That was about 8:15. Poured for and hour. We had to scarf down our pancakes before they got soggy

Rain gave way and the bikes showed up for a decent turnout. Good time but could do without the soaked shoes

Having a car show in a creek bed, on a rainy day, whose headwaters start up in the local mountains, wasn’t an ideal situation.
But hey!
It never rains in Southern California, and since those cars were built Ford Tough, why not?

The shower cap seat cover was the way to go!

Riding Vintage bikes is great, Many of you know Me by my Swing Bikes
I can dance on my swing bike.
The core exercise, brings me life!
I’ve been building, and riding them for nearly 20 years, I feel like kid.
Why I keep keep going..

My break from reality.
Me terminal brain cancer, taking care of my 85 year old Mom with Alzheimer’s.

Why I appreciate being out with all y’all
THANK YOU ALL!
Please, keep inviting me
Thank you!

I'm still wringing out my socks, and I didn't ever ride my bike.

Fun ride, after the rain, sad you missed it.
Water shoes, no socks always works for me.
No worries, summer is coming, more fun rides coming soon
