Friday night, after
a 95 mile day, we met at Malibu Beach RV Park. It was
up some 300 feet above the ocean on the other side of Pacific
Coast Highway. One more day of riding left. |

Saturday August
10th.
Doug arrived home in Irvine bit after 1 PM after starting that
last 75 miles at 7:30 AM from Malibu. Time enough to take a
shower, a nap and mow the lawn before the "End of the ride" and
"Hi to Alan & Carol" pizza party at 5 PM!
Bob Johnson and Dick Sar (Buddies that have each summited Mt.
Whitney with me twice). |
 |
Long time running
buddy Jim McElroy and wife Cassandra. 17 people in total
were at the party. |
 |
Dave and Dolly Ross.
Dave is a retired professional photographer who has been doing my
invention photography since way back in the Evel Knievel days. |
 |
Gene Langworthy and
Ray. Gene (also a fellow runner) owned AeroChem, Inc., where
I consulted 4 days a week back in the early 1980's. Sold it
to Ducommon. Retired way up in the hills of San Clemente
overlooking the ocean. AeroChem made all kinds of aerospace
chemically machined parts for the Space Shuttle, jet fighter
aircraft, cruise missiles, racing yachts, race cars, etc. |
