It was a sad day leaving Denver. That left us down to us 3 Canadians, not that we weren't having an absolute blast, it was time to move on and say goodby to my buddy Doc.. We never laughed so hard as we did hangin with all these wonderful gals and guys and now saying good by to her was not easy. We promised not to cry because we would see each other next year It was time to move on to our next adventure. We knew we were headed to Socal to meet some new friends and to raise some awareness and money along the way. Bro had never seen the Grand Canyon so that was on our route. We would then head to meet Carrie Kuehn for CA and Brenda Fox, and the Pink Hummer. These are women that have given us great support. Carrie especially had donated her time and built us a website as she agreed with me mine sucked...lol Check it out Conga Website If you need a website built she is the gal.
I was really looking forward to meeting Brenda Fox too, we had been talking alot and she was promoting the Conga on her site. The Pink Hummer said she would put on a barbeque and fundraiser. So we had the time, and couldn't think of a better place to ride, to meet some more great online friends.
Cindy/Texasred gave us all her key fobs that she made to give as gifts for donations along the way. They were one hot ticket. We would tell people for a buck you get a thankyou for a couple you can take a picture, for 5 you can have a picture with our helmets on,and for $10 you can have a special made Conga key fob. One guy, can't remember where, gave me $100 bucks for one. We always felt better when we had something to hand out.
We were heading to the desert and it was getting HOT!! Wilbur still stuck it out with the wig, he knew how well it attracted attention. Attention meant donations. What a great sport.
Our stops were getting more and more frequent as the heat really set in. Mind you every stop meant a donation of some sort.
Wilbur workin it!!
My Conga Biker Bear, this is his second Conga.
She just wanted her pic taken with us.
