Meet the Bikes: Part II

Meet The Bull. If the name sounds ominous, that's because The Bull is ominous. To avoid the retelling of The Legend of The Bull, go re-read Pecos Bill and the Cyclone. Everywhere the story says "Pecos Bill," insert "Shane." Everywhere the story says "Cyclone," insert "The Bull." That gets as close to the story of The Bull as is possible in this limited space.
The Bull has been on numerous journeys; too many to recount. It will suffice to say that there is no place The Bull fears to trod; usually at speeds that would make mere mortals tremble. The Bull is also a wily beast, whose motto is: "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with Bull..."
On a less frightening note, preparations for the trip are continuing nicely. Hand warmers, first aid kits, tire plugs, and a clothes line are this week's acquisitions. Most of the packing and staging activities will likely be done next week (March 16-20) with the obligatory break for St. Patrick's Day and Reubens.
Saturday, March 14, will be spent helping the Shelby County High School FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) on a Habitat for Humanity project in Montevallo, Alabama. The project is being led by Coach Jim Adams, one of the greatest people I've ever worked with. Pictures from the job site will be posted upon completion.

Donation Total Thus Far: $247.00
Special thanks to TB and AFEP for their grant. We appreciate all of your support.

Remember...
...The Bull is watching.
