Best of Times**

We just got back from our latest ride and had a great opportunity to MEET and GREET with Dennis DeYoung from STYX!! Can you believe it?

The band is currently on tour and playing nightly at the California State Fair. Of course, we all gathered up the wives and rocked hard to a sampling of all of their greatest jams the opening night of the fair. What made this even better was that Brian had won backstage passes for all of us to meet the band from a contest put on by 96.9 The Eagle. Thanks Eagle! We couldn't help but mention our fun loving bike club to the guys and we were so surprised to find out that Dennis DeYoung is an avid rider, too! He thought it might be a great way to pass the time during his stay in Sacramento and joined us on a 10 mile loop of the American River Bike Trail and followed the amazing ride up with some great food at Adalbertos. We even brought along an extra club uniform for Dennis to wear and had somebody take our picture. We couldn't wait to share it with all of our readers and fans alike. Thank you Dennis for taking us on the ride of our lives. It truly was The Best of Times!

Your song selection for coversong #5 is The Postal Service "Brooklyn Blues."

** The following events were just what Brian told me. Don't blame me if they actually didn't take place.

I'm too shocked and alarmed by the color scheme to even comment on the validity of events or "team" photo as posted. Clearly, the SpokesLadies have hacked through our firewall and reigned havok on our sweet little blog.

Thanks Ladies, for giving us direction for a new cover song, and a hope for a better tomorrow!

It was a foregone conclusion. You give it to the girls and they come back with Postal Service. Perhaps the second "girliest" pseudo-indie band after Coldplay.

That's classic Indie-snob whining from Brian. Postal service rocks. I reject your comparison with coldplay.
