Well gang, what a blast that was!
Something like 20 of us eccentrics gathered in beautiful La Jolla and we had an absolute blast! I won't begin to list the folks attending (as I would inevetably leave someone out..) We ate & drank, talked for hours and had a very disorganized trivia game competing for a few goodies I brought. We even had a few trivia questions that none of actually had the answer for! Great fun...
As we learned at past Cirque du Cyclismes, it is about the people, with the bikes as the glue.
Special thanks to the Pergolizzis, now freshly moved frm NYC & domiciled in SJ, for arranging the gathering. And thanks to all the gang for popping in.
