    Mad dogs and Englishmen

    Stupid hot out but I took the bike out anyways. Starr Vaughn Equestrian Center to Rancho Murietta and back (30 miles south of Sacramento in the central valley) it took me about an hour. My helmet shell was almost too hot to touch when I got back. 96* in the shade, insanely hot out on the bike. I'm not an Englishman so mad dog it is.

    Lot’s of prickly stuff to navigate where you ride, I’ll bet. When I played golf there, you never even tried to find balls out of play.
    My old days with my Bultaco never saw me come back without a new wound, and all I had to dodge were some Mesquite trees.

    Not being a dick.....it's stupid how everything is taxed so high & your charged more and more to live there, I'm shocked they have not got to the point your forced to give them your paycheck and they give you back a portion....

    Sister had a 2 horse horse trailer & I forget what she said tax was on it and ended up selling it as it was to expensive to keep even without horses....

    Did you know that in Carmel by the Sea it's illegal to eat ice cream on the boardwalk or that women can not wear high heels....that it's illegal to give 2 babies a bath at the same time in the same tub or did you know it's illegal for dogs to mate within 500 yards of a church. Breaking this law is punishable by a fine of $500 and/or six months in prison. ..Zoot Suits are illegal....and child prostitution is legal....

    and that none of those laws from the early 1900 to mid 1900s are enforced...dude get a life. Horse trailer just like anything else here you pay a sales tax at purchase time and in this case you pay a minimal one time fee to register your horse trailer for as long a you own it and that's it. Anything else is pure BS that you are being fed
