Wipeout Wednesday: Skate Fail

RoidRageRon back with a gentle reminder that concrete does leave a mark.

Yet, for some reason it just gets me charged up to go get my SHRED on... anyone down for 40's and a pool session at the Pacifica park??

Get the F*%& out of my way grom!!

Meet Me in the Park

I love the fall. The tasty ales, the weather, the swell, the softer light, and yes, the music!

Hardly Strictly Bluegrass is upon us again, and it looks to be nothing short of fantastic. If you are in the area, come join for a weekend of fun in Golden Gate Park. You'll find me wrangling a Rooster plucking a Banjo with an Arrow just off the porch...

What event are you fired up about this fall? What are you imbibing to keep your spirits soaring?
