Not content with standing around at Nick's talking and tire kicking, some of us took it upon ourselves to take a Saturday spin to the beach yesterday. Steph, Ratto, The Cape, Dustin, ScottP, Henry and yours truly jumped in our cars and headed south on interstate 5 to Laguna Canyon road before heading north on Pacific Coast Highway. As you can see, it was a beautiful day with Spring right around the corner. We were just getting ready to take the Balboa Ferry across Newport Bay when Henry shot an exhaust gasket out of number two cylinder  . We limped it over to Cappy's and had some eats and drinks to allow things to cool a bit before Ratto pulled out his "roll-away full of tools" to give Henry a chance to tighten things up. Is there any one else here who carries all their jets around with them   ?? Then it was up Beach Blvd for stops at V-Dub parts, Denham's, a quick chat with Richie Webb, and a few beers at Greg Brinton's new shop. Greg was just putting the finishing touches on Brian Plummer's rig. We had a great time blasting around!  |

Looks like a great day! And you're right, cruising around is better than hanging out in a parking lot. Usually. Makes the snow we got this morning even better... |
