Date Night

By RL Policar
May 30, 2008 1 Min Read

Last night I took Priscilla on a unique date that involved our bicycles. I loaded up my Xtracycle with a blanket, and a cooler full of “refreshments.” I rigged up the bikes with some lights for safety. Priscilla’s Electra was bling’d up with my Down Low Glow neon light.

We rode up to a near by park called Mountain View, set up and gazed at the stars. My camera sucks, so its not like you could really see that well, but it was a clear and cool night.

Here’s a shot of a ferris wheel at a near by Brea Carnival that’s set to take place this weekend.

We had a great time even though this was a low cost, low tech date. Sometimes it doesn’t take that much to enjoy each other’s company…a couple of bikes, a blanket and “refreshments.” You should try it too with your special person!

    Sounds like great fun. Do you have a line on cheap/free babysitting? I always wonder how you manage to get in so much riding…

    No but seriously…TV! JK!

    Yeah, we’re pretty lucky that our kids are older and we have a great teenage babysitter.

    I’m glad you could get out and spend some time together. Enjoying each other is more important and riding, web hosting or just about anything. It’s great that you have so much to enjoy together.
    Good job RL!

    Why is refreshments in quotes? Were they not actually refreshing?

    RL,

    I do “beer crawls”, but last time I had a combo like that, I was up for 48 hrs, b/c I was scared to sleep!
