|  Doppler, schmoppler. Pics from todays Slammin' ride. | Finch Platte
Mar 23, 2003 5:51 PM | | Doppler refers to the bud who shall remain unnamed (Korey) who bagged on the ride this a.m., saying Doppler radar claimed it was dumping rain over Sacramento. Well, not only was it
i not
dumping, but there was not one hint of rain during the ride- only a bit of mist at one point, and a bit of rain on the road on the way back to the cars.
Many pics of JFR were taken, and only a couple of Jilm. A few of my legs, and no pics of the 2 pitchers of Barnwood Ale we laid to rest at Steve's. *hic*
Jilm, hamming it up on the way back.
Ya missed out, Softkor! The trail was in primo shape, for the most part.
I've shot a lot of shots over the years in this spot, trying to get a good pic. This time, I decided to get uphill of the rider (JFR), and it worked.
Hey! Another pic of Johnny. Surprise!
Lots of branches hung heavy with water, and slapped us going by. It was hard to stay on the trail after getting b!tch-slapped with 'em, let me tell ya. Here JFR picks up a hitchhiker.
Well, I've got an after-ride buzz on. I hope I posted all the pics correctly ;0) You were missed, Kor.
Here's a stems-eye view of my legs, covered with mud on the way back.
Out.

Mar 23, 2003 6:46 PM | | Yeah I know, I'm not very bright and do make many poor decisions. It rained here well into the afternoon, but I finally got out. You know Jer, the real reason I didn't go is because, being a photographer too, there is no way I can go head-2-head with you photographically. You take great shots and are, "the man." I would have been overwhelmed and shamed;)Be warned though, I been stealth training and dog jumping... |

Mar 23, 2003 7:28 PM | | that picture rules. Your angle and framing are perfect. I have a few that i like that much, but not too many. |

Mar 23, 2003 8:40 PM | | There'll be other dayz... Did you guys even do MM? Didn't see any pictures of it? |

Mar 23, 2003 10:41 PM | | ....it was more than enough for him to hold onto the brakes and pray. |
