The Adventure to Get the 125.
Well it all started yesterday morning. My dad and me woke up at 5:00 in the morning so that we could get on the road at 6:00. So after we got all packed up and ready to go we hopped in the truck and started driving. The drive from Ojai to San Francisco was about a 5 hour drive there. On the news they were saying that there was going to be heavy rain but all we got was sprinkles.
So we finally got there at about 11:00 but when we got there Dex's(the owner of the bike)wife was standing outside of the house with the garage open and the bike sitting in there. When I walked up to it my mouth dropped. It was nicer then it looked on the pics,I was soooo excited to get out there on it. But Dex wasn't there yet becuase he was out at his kid's basketball game, so my dad and I decided to go get some grub and then come back. So we did, we just went to local Denny's about 10 minutes from his house. So we got something to eat and we figured that he probably wasn't there yet so we just went to the RadioShack across from the resturant.
After hanging out there for about 1 hour we decided to go back to the house and see if Dex was back yet. Right when we pulled in the driveway he pulled up behind us in his HUGE Hummer H2. When we got out of the car he kinda walked right by us and went in the house we thought he didn't even know who we where but about 2 minutes later he opened up the garage and we started lookin at the bike. My Dad and him talked for no less than 2 hours and the guy was super nice and very easy to work with.
So after we got the back packed up in the back of the Ridgeline we said good-bye and drove off. While we were up in that area we decided to go see Mark and Dori(Owners of The Track Club). They lived in San Jose and we were in Daly City so we decided to call them and ask if we could stop by, they said yes so we drove over there. When we got there Mark was standing outside waving at us. We got out of the truck, said hi and showed him the bike. He really liked it and when we told him what we got it for he thought we got a really good deal! So we went into the house for a little bit and talked and went on the computer. Not to long after Dori came home. It was fun having everyone there. So after hanging out there for about an hour. We decided to leave and start heading home.
So we started driving looking for any sign of a Starbucks but never did find one. After about 2 and a half hours of driving we found a In-And-Out Burger and decided to eat there. So we had some food and got back on the road.
While we were driving my dad decided to start telling me about the horror movie called the Blaire Witch Project. Ya that freaked me out. About 10 minutes after that I fell sound asleep,I have no idea how.haha While we were driving my dad said that he got hit with a HUGE shower of rain and wind. He said that it took over and hour more to get home because of the wind's.
When we finally got home, my dad woke me up and I got out of the truck and went in by myself. My mom and brother were already asleep and the house was completely dark. Dad was outside in the rain bringing the bike into the garage. I sat on the couch and stated hearing noises. I was freaking out because of the story my dad told me. It was just the wind and rain but it was still really scary because it was so dark. So quickly I ran around the whole house turning all the lights on. I ran upstairs and jumped in my bed and went to sleep as fast as I could. No nightmares though but it sure did give me a jolt.
It was a fun trip and I hope to be able to do it again sometime.
The End
