Cruisin’ with the Sharks

Posted by Dave

Hi All:

I’ve been riding with our friends in Oro Valley the past few weeks. (North of Tucson,) Their Club is called the Vistoso “Sharks.” They get together three times a week and go cruising for the elusive school of pastries.

Before the hunt

The prey is usually found and consumed within 20 miles of home base. Satiated, the pack returns home, usually breaking up into small groups to better elude a rival gang, the Saddlebrook “Jets.”

Feeding time

Occasionally, the two gangs meet at the same feeding grounds, but so far I have not had to participate in any rumbles. Occasional contact is okay, but one needs to be aware of too much socializing.

Weather has been a series of rain storms and warm sunshine. The Sharks are complaining about the lousy winter weather, but from my perspective, it’s “pretty damn nice.” I haven’t had to shovel snow since Logan, and most afternoons are shirt-sleeve warm.

I’ve caught up with all my projects “around the house” so I guess I’ll have to concentrate on more cycling. We are still hanging around north of Tucson, since there are many more things in the area we want to see.

We hope all is well with everybody.

Dave
