easter sunday riding. hell yes. we started at the ped bridge. first up: had to
chug a can of beer and then we were off to checkpoint 1 - the trudy's tree. up
that hill was fun with a can of beer inside.

with no manifest - at each checkpoint we had to look for easter eggs to find our
next destination.

checkpoint 2: over to the lawn behind the old BSS. there we had to play bocce
ball. and the losers had to eat hard boiled eggs. i only had to eat one (whew)
(and just the whites thankfully). nick had to eat 4. YUCK. ryan 3 and on down.

finally that was done. gross. and off to fiesta gardens on the east side. we all
stayed together and found the checkpoint = but the easter eggs were gone cuz all
the kids took them. ha. so we called and finally met rita and brian at the 4th
checkpoint. we went to the 3rd - but again, the easter eggs were gone.

at the 4th which was at fiesta gardens by the virgin mary graffiti, we had to eat
bunny marshmellows. as many as we could in 10sec. I could only get 2 down.

here we got split up cuz the 2 that ate the most got to head out a minute before
me and ryan. we were heading to the 5th checkpoint: a parking garage at 17th &
lavaca. we got there and took the stairs up carrying our bikes. got the easter
eggs. and now it appeared the race was on. it got faster.

we caught up to the other 2 guys and all 4 of us headed to the 6th checkpoint: the
old whole foods parking garage. we rode up up up this one found the eggs and it
said GO TO BARTON SPRINGS AND JUMP IN.

dang. so here again we got split I was riding with Nick now, so we sprinted down
lamar to zilker. Got there, locked my bike up, paid my $ and ran down the steps.
two guys were there before me. ryan was already wet. I asked rita: 'so, he won....is
there any reason we should jump in?' she said: well, there is 2nd and 3rd. me and
the other guy looked at each other and RAN to the water and threw ourselves in. he
hit the water a second before me and we were all dying laughing.

it was sick fun and good riding with good people - although, riding home in wet clothes does suck.
