Happy Summer Solstice

June 21, 2009

The gang celebrated the summer solstice by performing the ritual burning of

sacrificial gasoline (not sure if it was virgin or not) through the cylinders of the

ceremonial Hondas.  This moving experience lastest all day and was blessed by the

weather goddesses with low humidity and cool temperatures.  Included in the

elaborate ritual was a run up highway 52 north of Mount Airy that was very

cleansing (at least of other traffic as we left them behind).  After purchasing more

fuel for both riders and bikes, the gang continued their sacrifice by visiting one of

our holy shrines - “the parkway.”  With spirits renewed, we returned home on

Virginia backroads.

For those who could not join the gang for this service, I strongly recommend that

you take advantage of the coming holidays to make your own personal sacrifice to

the weather goddesses (they like cash, though flowers, chocolate and large

quantities of wine are also acceptable!)
