Try doing this for 2 hours through rain, hail and going uphill. My brother had a mad rooster-tail at the end of this ride.

Bolo, my brother and I cruised the Ruckus’ to Super Sunday for the first time today. Super Sunday is basically an annual event put on by TotalRuckus.com and Killer Scooter founder Steve to get all the localarea Ruckus’ together for a cruise. Ruckus from as far as Arizona showed up for the event, and had their been a better weather forecast there would have been even more. So we rolled out at 7:30am to meet up at the Hat to meet the other 100+ Ruckus (see pic). It was probably the best scooter experience I have ever had, cruising with literally 100 ruckus’ and seeing an endless line of scooters as far as you could see. It was great till the Zuma’s engine gave out and we got stranded in Sunland. So at noon we had to part from the pack, and had to fend for ourselves. Eventually we left the Zuma at a gas station and cruised “Dumb and Dumber” style back to Whittier to fetch a truck, this part of Super Sunday was not so fun, dealing with rain, hail, constant overheating (Ruckus aren’t meant to support 350+ lbs), and engine problems (water being sucked into the engine) all of which was a miserable ride home. All in all looking back we had a great time believe it or not. I think it’s the “shitty times” that result in the best and most memorable, anyway there is always next year!

Over 100 Ruckus! Not sure where We are headed next.

Like the graphitti? This picture is particulary funny because it’s a testiment to my belief that Japanese are so proper and regimented even at the worst of times. Look at the guy on the left he is actually smiling, I would be throwing a rock at the cameraman. Again it’s crazy to think people were just so openly racist and everyone just sat by and watched. But hey if you survived and lived till George Walker Bush’s reign you got a “sorry letter” and $20k just enough for that base model Civic!!!

Crazy, look at some of the signage people back in the day made. Just straight open racism, the redneck pointing to sign looks so proud, sucks if your like “that’s my grandma”!

Well on the way home from Mammoth I usually try and drop by the museum at Manzanar. If you have never been I urge that you go, from the outside the plain airplane-hanger-like building just looks so plain- Jane however on the inside it’s a different story. It’s a really nice museum documenting the internment (more like imprison) of Japanese Americans during WWII. It’s amazing that 60 years ago people in America were that crazy and decided to actually round up every single Japanese in America and throw them into a camp in the middle of the desert. Who’s great idea was that ? And it’s crazier to believe the 200+ million Americans were cool with it. But then again around this same time they were using fire hoses on blacks, so I guess this sort of thing was cool back then. It’s sad that “man” can be so cruel and ignorant, I hope we have learned from the past. In any case, onto a happier subject the pic is Sho having a good time playing with their display cases he recently learned to press his face into the glass and laugh. Crazy guy!

Though Sho didn’t get a ride he did see it snow for the first time. As for Ray I don’t know why her neck and cheek look fused together in this pic.

Unfortunately for Sho I couldn’t takehim to the top as I did when he was all but 3 months old. I had planned to try and sneak him on a ride under my jacket but the weather was just too crazy and I forgot the damn baby bjorn.

Thanks AK for hooking up the dope accomodations! Had a great time with the boys and my head still hurts from the beer-pong tourny. It sucks that the day we leave the sun decides to come out and play and the snow takes a break.
