Yeah I am big on helmets note the one I had on while burning some rubber and the other on the 900 ready to be put back on when we continued our ride. Btw, that pic of the 900 was at Lime Rock.

Unless a miracle happens, Bridgit and I wont be attending. We are both slammmmmmmmed at work. (left at 3:30am) returned at 9am. This meeting is Monday-Wednesday of this week, then i'll have my life back.

check out these pics, and you'll see what i've been up to. The lit up soccerball that looks like a globe in the comps my roommate and I created. It's going in the 2006 gatorade international ad campaign. They actually built a huge 4ft model of it as well.

Dude, see Tommi's other thread below for a poll. Were postponing this drive i guess and taking votes for another date since many of us cannot attend.

Oh, also nice work! I wonder if "Its in Figo" or "Its in Ronaldo" (if you know soccer,you know what im getting at)

i've been watching b-roll from the making of all of the commerials...those guys are hilarious! Hearing them speak english "gay-toe-raid.....it is in me..........is it......in you?"

and hearing stories from the account execs about these guys showing up to photo shoots hung over, taking naps on the sets, and demanding coolers of beers. Not to mention taking cell phone calls during shoots. Hahah these guys are great!

Since the Rt. 34 commuter lot is only 20 minutes (OK 15 in the S) away from me, I'll still show (busy on 12th...)

I'm going driving either alone or with others! (Today was a fabulous day to was it too--been a nice cool spring but not motivating to wash cars.)

Maybe see someone tomorrow,

Randy

As far as I know, only me! 'Twas absolutely gorgeous...

The sky was falling though, before I arrived (was early) a bird let go as I was passing underneath and it splattered all over the windshield--doh!

About 40 miles later a branch fell in the center of the lane ahead with something grey that bounced on the pavement, then got up groggily and presumably ran away (I'd already swerved and passed by).

The Sycamore trees were releasing their seeds, so every now and then you'd come across a cloud of fluffy white floating across the road which was a blast to burst through.

Despite not having anyone else there, I put the GPS to good use and even discovered a new "fun road" conveniently nearby.

I'll be away next weekend so have fun,

Randy

Ended up just cleaning/sorting out my garage yesterday. Couldn't get out of bed for an early drive . Although my buddy showed up with his new harley springer softail that I took for WOT through Milford.

Someday we will get a little CT drive going.
