Keg Ride

Reg: Keg, I have been thinking.

Keg: Yes, Reg?

Reg: Well, I have been thinkin after all the joy you gave us at SLOIII maybe I could do something for you.

Keg: Yes Reg?

Reg: Well I have it in my mind that you have never been motorcycle riding before and you might enjoy it.

Keg: I might indeed, Reg.

Reg: Well, let's get you loaded up and go then. You don't have a helmet do ya?

Keg: Very funny Reg.

Reg: Ok. You are all strapped in. This way you look like a jet engine. Maybe next time you can ride sidesaddle.

Keg: Ok.

Reg: This is Templeton Rd just out behind my house. It kind of runs along the Salinas quote/unquote River.

Keg: Hehe. I see what you mean. That looked more like a little ditch to me. I think maybe you guys added a couple inches of runoff to that the weekend of the party, though.

Reg: Like you had nothing to do with that.

Keg: True.

Reg: As you can see, the weather is gorgeous again. Spring is very nice in this area. Still a bit chilly at night, but we'll take what we can get and be happy about it.

Keg: Let's go hit more curves.

Reg: A keg after my own heart. Let's go.


Reg: This is South El Pomar. Sometimes I ride my bicycle out here. Climbing this hill on a bike is a biotch!

Keg: I bet. It's pretty neat on a motorcycle, though.




Reg: This road is a little shortcut across from South El Pomar to El Pomar. It's called Almond drive and it's a nice little road between some rances and vineyards.

Keg: Yeah, it's kind of quaint.




Reg: Well, we better move along.

Keg: Ok, but let's not rush to get back there.

Reg: Sure, no prob, We'll turn onto El Pomar up here and then take a left onto Lupine Dr just to kill some more time. I once competed in a Triathlon that came through here during the bike leg.

Keg: Cool, Captain Fitness. {while you are hauling an empty keg on the back of a motorcycle}

Reg: Did you say somethin?

Keg: I said, 'nice day aint it?'

Reg: Oh, yeah. Sure.




Reg: Well, I have enjoyed our time together, but we must part ways. Who knows. Maybe we'll meet again after you have washed up and gotten refilled.

Keg: You probably say that to all the kegs.

Reg: No, I mean it. You are a special keg. I will never forget you. I will write about you.

Keg: Really? You really mean it? You'll write about me?

Reg: Sure. Why not? People have written about stupider things.

Keg: Thanks, Reg.

Reg: Don't mention it. Well, here's home. I hope you enjoyed it. I bet you have never done that before, eh?

Keg: Not likely. I usually get used and forgotten.

Reg: Well, me and my friends aren't like the other guys. You tell the other kegs about us.

Keg: [sniff] Ok. [sniff] Goodbye, Reg.

Reg: Goodbye, Keg.

 

Well, after hearing of our sadness for the dearly departed, my 'friend in the business' as they say gave me a call with a solution. Would you all please puts you hands together in welcoming, the newest addition to the Reg71 garage....
