I know, jumping ahead a little bit, ain't Saturday yet but just posting this so I don't forget. 😁
I dunno, ever since I turned 63, haven't been on the bike, all week. 😄 Don't know how but I got a couple PRs, I'll take them. 😁 Just a ride for some exercise but the wind.....AGAIN!!! Cool when you get back and others mention the wind, I know it's not just me. I'm Not Old, I'm A Classic. 😆 Not bad for around 25 bucks. 👍

I'm not old, I'm a Classic 😆😁😆
Some cool dudes out there on fixies. I like this dude's chrome fixie, looked real clean.
8 pack for less than $5 or 6 pack for $10 ???? I'm one of those budget cyclists. Hate paying $10 for something I can get for $5 if it's about the same. Or $200 for something I can get for $50. Well, found these Stroopwafel things on a cycling post. Looked them up and sure 'nuff, almost like Honey Stingers. They actually have MOR CARBOHYDRATES than the Honey Stingers. Same fat, a little less sodium but a little more cholesterol. Only thing is they are not individually wrapped so I'll have to take it along in a baggy. No big deal. More carbs, less money is good!
These are the idiots that will sooner or later hurt somebody or maybe even cause loss of life. I was leaving Huntington Beach when a group of kids on e-bikes decided to take both lanes not paying attention. I had to scream at the first idiot hoping to catch his attention. The other guys were just plain idiots. Speed about 17, enough to kill someone. Not to mention they leave rubber marks all over the trail in some areas and parks just to make things look ugly. But of course, the parents will cry that their kids need a place to have fun and don't do any damage. Hope the authorities do something as the idiots are even riding wheelies through indoor malls placing the elderly and toddlers in danger. Yes, I have pics of that too. But hopefully, a parent sees this and realizes their kids are not little angels having fun as they may claim. Who knows, saving one life is worth the effort of posting a video showing stupid kids doing stupid sheot. Not to mention, these kids are a little more tame than some that have aimed at female cyclists just to put a scare in them, for no reason. Wake up people!
Fucking idiots on video. Video recorded on May 23, 2026 right at the end/start of the trail in Huntington Beach. I know plenty of people who hate these groups with good reason.
OF course the parents will argue, not my little Billy! Sorry, your little Billy is a fucking idiot too!
They do stupid stuff like this for no other reason to damage and deface property, nice property that is there for all to enjoy.
And today, Wednesday May 27, I was going to ride but still tired from the Birthday Weekend ha ha ha! So instead I went to breakfast and created the video with the footage I had taken on my birthday ride.
63 today but still having fun! Breakfast at Millie's with Gina after sleeping in a bit.
The Sizzler video on YT
First was breakfast at Millie's. Nice, can't complain about a place that has the $6.99 Senior special on the weekends. Of course Gina had to add bacon and couldn't wait long enough for me to take a picture of the bacon first. 4 strips, 2 MIA ha ha ha!
The waiters and waitresses watch me now that I told them I gave up desserts for my NY resolution. So this is the first time having a little individual pie since. Almost 6 months but the waitress heated it up a little much I guess cause it came out flat like a pancake ha ha ha. Still tasted mighty fine thoughQ
Dinner at Sizzler after a visit to the mall, a trip to Rhino Records and a cruise through town.
Thought I'd try something a little different today, some ribs. Boy, I couldn't eat much so I skipped on the salad. Gina had the usual with a trip to the salad bar.
During out little trip to the mall, the people from the jewelry store came out and gave me a box of cookies for my b-day. That was very nice and from Mrs. Fields where we get coffee most nights and next to the jewelry store. All of them nice people!
The evening before, Gina insisted on taking me out to a nicer place. Went to Outback Steakhouse. I was actually disappointed. We paid $95 and Gina didn't even get a full meal, just a side soup and salad. I did get a carrot cake, hey it's my birthday and I was going to take advantage ha ha ha! But sadly, I think Sizzler is better for half the price.
Today she wanted to take me to The Northwoods Inn for steak and lobster. Sounded good but I told her I was worried that I would once again be disappointed. I dunno, something just told me to save some dough and go to Sizzler.
I must be getting old though. All day and last night, Gina had been asking me to pick something out for my gift. Anything she said, for the bike, for my videos, anything at all. I told her I think about another GoPro but so expensive now and the GP10 I bought a little over a year ago works great so no need for a front and rear mounted recorders. This one is great hand held so it allows me to aim back and ahead..
Bike stuff, heck I think my old bike is doing fine, just bought some shoes a few weeks ago, some jerseys, more earbuds, and really, can't think of anything I don't have that I want and really don't want for anything ha ha ha!
Oh well, the weekend isn't over yet though ha ha ha!
Aww, my Honey made sure my birthday weekend continued to the end. She kept insisting on getting me a gift though and old age I guess, I don't really yearn for anything. So we went to lunch at Los Jarritos, still great chile rellenos. 😋 Then walking around the Montclair Plaza, noticed this t-shirt shop. They have some cool stuff at Legend. The designs were different from anything I've seen. Gina twisted my arm to get an AC/DC shirt. Then a second. Honestly, I tried to fight it off but the designs are cool so I caved. Then at Penny's ran across an Ali the Greatest t-shirt and a Fender guitar. Pretty good prices at Penny's for t-shirts but more generic. Pretty cool stuff at Legend. More than just the common band designs and other stuff. My sweet Honey !
Did finish off the holiday birthday weekend at Sizzler.
This was Monday but on Sunday, we took a trip to Rhino Records in Montclair. Some good stuff. Genesis Greatest Hits for $4.99 used but perfect. Then saw a $2.99 special section but each on sale for $1. Perfect Robert Plant CD with Big Log and I'm in the Mood. Wow, crazy that it's that cheap but the clerk said because they don't sell, they go in the sale section. But heck, replacing CDs that I have so getting them cheap is nice.
But later at Wally World, ran across Audio Slave. Love that song Set It Off so hoping it will take in a YT video with no copyright issues. As well as ordering a Jefferson Starship Greatest CD on Ebay. Some cool songs, Jane, Laying it on the Line and a few other classics that I think are cool. So a food filled weekend, some cool t-shirts and some good music. I try to fight off Gina wanting to spend her money on me but I do get weak sometimes ha ha ha! Well, it is cheaper than a new GoPro or Garmin ha ha ha!
Just ordered a couple more jerseys as well. Just got the Classic in the mail so I ordered another 2 ha ha ha!
Crazy Chinese people, had to have them correct the spelling ha ha ha! They did but placed the A after the I. So I notified them. They told me to keep the incorrect one then sent me one that was corrected. Oh well, I guess I can wear the incorrect one under a windbreaker on night rides. No way would I wear it where others could see it, they'd laugh their butts off ha ha ha!
Just came in the mail today, Tuesday. Just had my birthday so I guess I am getting more CLASSIC. 😁
