Mike & Tod - Day 8 - Ahhhhhh......

(Almost) to the Promised Land.....

105 clicks of not-so-hard biking today has brought them to Malibu.

Not to shabby a way to spend a day, cruising along Highway 1A.

This just in from the front lines; "the girls are scenery is beautiful!"

And they even found a motel to their liking. In Malibu!

And when you're riding economy, I think I know what that means. And in case anyone thinks I am being unkind, been there, love doing that.

The trip so far has them just sniffing at the outskirts of LA. But they have been warned about this next part of the trip.

But if they are looking for a police escort, this may not be the time they want to have their first encounter with the boys in blue.

As the LAPD may mistake them as gentlemen of limited means, and not give them the warm reception they richly deserve.

Although I'm thinking the Malibu PD may have already given the LAPD a courtesy heads up.

Ha ha. After all the times on the road they said they stopped at The Office - solely to "plan the next day" - they are now finally being truthful.

About stopping at The Office, that is. Not about the planning part......

[And if anyone makes as much as one comment about my Photoshopping skills, I will hunt you down and take unflattering photos of you.]

Wonderful, wonderful photoshopping! (Am I safe?)

Like the "sniffing at the outskirts" - when are you publishing?

Thursday morning.
In Huntington beach, across from a water tower that has been converted into rental suits.
Waiting for mike to unload some extra weight so we can continue our journey.
Sunny out, little wind, looks like it'll be a great ride today.
