Leave all WMD's at home... and no bike mounted rifle racks!
Salute at the nice soldiers and put a little American flag on your bike for solidarity. Wish I could go....

Just to let you know, you should wave at the Marines on the base, not the soldiers....although I am a very typical un-military person from Massachusetts, my son is a Marine (all that Cat 3 racing made him crazy and tough) and he has let me know in no uncertain terms that you never call marines soldiers!
I've spent much time in San Diego and will keep this ride in mind when I visit my Dad next time.

all this talk of San Diego, Camp Pendleton, San Clemente, Palomar Airport Road, etc. brings back memories. I lived there 7 years (ex. was a Marine).
I miss the laid back folks out there. But the bay area is beautiful and GREEN for a good part of the year............

There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

Cindy when were you on Pendelton? Thom was in the Marines '85 - '91, stationed at Pendelton. I worked as a lifeguard fro the base pools most of that time.

Robyn:
I am a protester of this ludicris politically driven war, but I'd do anything to help a soldier. God bless and keep your son, he will be in my thoughts and prayers.
