What?! Zeus is too busy to attend?


Dwight,
No, Zeus couln't make it as he had fallen out with Hera last week and was busy making up (or what that making out ... sheesh, this English language).

... but traveling to your place would be a great vacation. Any chance of sponsoring a rally at your place?


Skillet,
I would love to be given the opportunity, one day.
If you can get as far as anywhere in the the UK (May thru October) ... I'll do the rest (including flights, accom. and a choice of three bikes ... well maybe 2 as the 3rd is an Italian crotch rocket).

Why would he push such a heavy bike (especially on a small incline) instead of taking a walk up and getting a little gas ...
Who knows...

Bedouin. Blessed are those eyes that have seen more roads than any man! (Homer).
