On one of the windiest days of the year, Jack and the OAS crew were headed to familiar territory with the ride from Santa Barbara to the West LA VA.
Ready to head home
When Jack first met up with me the first ride we did was up PCH from Malibu up toward Pt. Magu, now 4 shorts months later, we were heading down PCH with some of the same guys from that late June Saturday. The weather again was unbelievable with the tail wind at better than 30 mph. With that assistance, Jack and Co. had the fastest ride of the tour at better than 23 mph.
Heading Down PCH
The ride was anything but uneventful as the support van suffered 2 flat tires sending Scotty scrambling to partner up with the documentary crew to follow along the rest of the ride.
At the finish, there was again a big turnout of media including Entertainment Tonight. OAS expanded with the addition of Actor Mike Vogel and soldiers BJ Jackson and Jorge DeLeon. They will all join Jack for tomorrow's ride.
Tomorrow the ride heads from the West LA VA to the Long Beach VA with the grand finale on Sunday to San Diego.
My wife and I are pleased to let everyone know that Laura is expecting with the baby due June 11. It was great to get the news yesterday.
