Hi Marc,

Wouldn't miss it! Vesta and I have been to all of them out here. To all you So. Cal. members, if you haven't been, you're missing one hell of a great day of riding. They have changed the route every year so I can't describe the ride, but each has been a lot of fun.

Only two problems....first, Sharon Tay moved! One of the nicest asses on the morning news isn't there anymore to Grand Marshall. Second, a lota cops there!

There's a Police memorial run out of Sacramento on July 29th that I plan on attending with a few retired and a few active cops. With me starting the Academy next month, it'll be a cool representation of the past, present, and future of law enforcement. Anybody here plan on going?
