Guest guest Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 We seem to be on all the bike lists. The season is officially open <g> The wildflowers are blooming like crazy, the fawns are toddling along and the bikers are out in groups of 3 or more just about every day. We see them at our one and only gas station here in the valley. The comments are always about how our gas is cheaper than either end of 299 or 36 -- "How come you guys are paying less for your gas?"
