November 5, 1991 Street riding with the POWs

Actual Journal Entry
Went to the store in the morning and did fat grocery shopping. Then I rode to the bank and then recycled some cans. Got $6.50 for it. Later, Alan Foster and I worked out. I rode back from there and seshed a couple schools on the way to the P.O.W. house. Later, Dave Clymer, Keith Trainor and I went to Cal State Fullerton & another school and street rode. We tore up the place. Darrin Mitchell came over at night with two girls. One of em digs me. Shes fresh. I hope it hooks up."

Looking Back NowÂ
November 5, 1991 Street riding with the POWs Looking Back Now Two street riding sessions and the gym in the same day? I guess thats somewhat normal for a 20yr old! Clymer and Trainor were always down for the street-riding missions. For that matter, there was ALWAYS somebody at the P.O.W. house that was down for a street sesh. I wonder how many cans I recycled for the big payout of $6.50?

That was probably enough money for a weeks worth of Top Ramen and a couple 40 ozs. Its a good thing I had my priorities! And just for the record, I dont think I ever hooked up with that girl that Darrin brought over. She was probably grossed out by the house. There were 12 people living in the 4-bedroom POW house at the time. And we all lived BMX 24-7. Good times, good times"
