I was on the SGRT today and I think I saw the famous Mr. Beanz. I thought he only hung out on SART? I'm rarely on that trail, so I'm not sure it was him. But, this guy had an entourage and a big smile on his face, so I think it was him.

Nope, sorry not me! Now if you had said "Dopey Smile", that might have been me!:D

No, wasn't me. I did ride up Euclid in Upland though. Dodging traffic, avoiding road debris and BMW's!:p

Well, it must have been some guy pretending to be you. He even had a stunt wife riding out in front. The homeless were throwing flowers. I wanted to ask for an autograph; good thing you saved me from the embarrassment.

Yup, that was me! Were you riding? I saw one guy on an mtb cummuting I think. Didn't see any roadies!

I rode up Euclid to the top of the steep hill near the chapel. That lil hill always warms my heart!:D

Did he have an entourage? Did he have his trademark smile? Was he taking 1000 pictures of his lovely wife? Were the homeless waving to him?

I just want to make sure it was him.

Hahahaha! Nope, Gina doesn't like climbing up the hills, hard to smile with so much traffic around, and I gave my homeless buds a couple of bucks last time I saw them. I have a feeling after a couple of brewski's, they were in no condition to be waving!:D

Hey, that was almost 3 years and 25 lbs ago. Remeber, when you almost snapped my spine in two!:D

You must have deserved it. It isn't like I would snap your spine in two just for the heck of it. :D :D

And, it is hard to believe it was that long ago, time flies.

Yup, I was riding with BigKahuna and SemperFi. Ever since you snapped my spine, my riding hasn't been the same. I've gained weight and find it tougher to exercise. I ofen lose my balance too. Oh wait a minute, that's from too many Twinkies!:D

You probably should not have pissed me off. Remember that next time.

Oh, have any more twinkies?

Gosh, I have not seen SemperFi since that day and barely talked to the Kahuna.

I haven't seen Semperfi since either. He doesn't visit the other forum anymore. I was worried about him cause he was getting pretty old. Geez, he had to be in his fifties!:D.....I did see his buddy Leo on BA. He said Semperfi was fine and still riding up Oakglen, so I guess he's ok!

How do you know it was him?

Methinks there are Beanz clones running around SoCal.

Some are almost like "Batman Begins"; better than the original. I know the camera sometimes adds weight, but The SGRT Beanz looked 25 lbs lighter and had his acolytes in tow.
