St. Louis, Missouri

 Rode out to Missouri with Michael and Grant on Friday.  It was a spur of the moment trip, which always makes things a little more fun.  Grant texted me late Thursday night about riding out to St. Louis the next day to skate and hang out with Mike Block.  I had only been around Mike a couple of times before the trip, and I don't know if we had ever even had an actual conversation before I showed up on his doorstep at 1 in the morning after a 250 mile ride out there.  Well, after the trip out there, I can say that Mike is one of the best guys out.  Incredibly nice the entire time.  Always hooking up the awesome meals and always down for a good time.  Thanks so much for everything Mike and Rose!  The trip went really well.  The only hiccup on the entire trip happened about a half of a mile away from arriving at Mike's house on Friday night.  Michael found himself in a sketchy situation rolling backwards down a steep hill with only a rear brake and with his gal on the back.  The bike went down, but he handled it to where him and Christiana didn't hit the ground too hard.  A new pair of risers and a little more oil in the tank and  everything is as good as new.  Looking forward to a lot more trips over the course of this summer.  HERE'S TO THE GOOD HOMIES!
