    Oh I agree. I like the mellow runs. Calico was kind of a shit show, but it was mellow at least.

    Ya. The sitting around waiting for Miah was getting out of hand, given he was stuck, but nothing else was happening for a long ass time.

    Some people shouldn't install mufflers for a living if their welds look like

    And their tube bending skills look like

    And some people just can't park...

    i hate sitting and waiting for people to get their shit together. Big annoyance in pismo when cruising around, look back and nobody is there.

    not bad. Pismo is fun but when the same guy keeps getting stuck it gets real old and slows things down. Pismo isnt necessarily that big but i hate sitting and waiting.
