You know, I got to thinkin' about this.  Don't need to put a rainbow on it.  With that bike's paint scheme, all the pinstriper needs to do is add a pink, orange, green and maybe a yellow stripe to the flame pattern!

Tommy, if someone takes a picture of the expression on Chip's face when he see's the rainbow painted on the fender, I'm in for $100 too!

So, does that mean you're in for $100?  If so we're up to $500!

You know, we're all joking around about this, and I certainly wouldn't want to ruin someones paint, not even Chips, so how about getting a painter to put it on with water based paint that would wash off?

Somehow I don't think $500 is going to get your painter past Jim...   :P

Captain’s Log | 06.08.2011

Since the bike is having “is that it” issues addressed I am being a tourist in San Francisco.  This is not the first time I have been here but it is like a number of cities that I enjoy taking in the sights!  The day started early as I am still on east coast time for my wake up.

I decided to take in a tour bus since it would refresh my memory of a number of displays and get me around the city.  There are a number of options here…










Coilt Tower…built in honor of the fire fighters





Here is the city’s motto on the Fog City Diner…









Tower on the Ferry Building…by the way you will see plenty of electrical wires in the pics due to the city’s transit system in electrical power…by the way…+50% of the land we are riding on is landfill…









The Bay Bridge…San Francisco side…











While you can not see it these are all sewing machines…





At Union Square you can spend all of your money if you chose to do so…





If I remember correctly this was the “sugar daddy’s” wife of 25+ years younger than him statue…could be wrong on this one…either way…lucky guy and fortunate gal…located at Union Square…




These folks are enjoying the view of Union Square while shopping at Macy’s












Tony Bennett left his heart in San Francisco and painted this one too…







One of the original banks of the gold rush…

As you may know San Francisco is known for it’s art…one of the many examples of it…








In the event you can not see it…a lady laying down on top of the building…





You can imagine what type of art is located in this building…remember some of the ones highlighted…I will leave that one alone…but your tax dollars at work…







A waterfall monument in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King…peaceful…





The Palace of Fine Arts









The Hearst Building where news was fabricated to sell newspapers…check out the detail…










One of the many large churches here…Joe and Marilyn wanted to be married here but it had to be conducted at City Hill because they were both divorced…





At this church you can have your pets blessed once a year…a very long line to have this performed…








I believe this may be Nob Hill…





Some of the pretty flowers and of course a Giants Fan….They were in town playing…





You may already know what is one of the more famous elements of this street…





What is a trip to this area without seeing the World Famous….Hey it’s cheaper than Sea World and more fun too!

















A day time pic of Alcatraz…earlier this week they had folks swimming from there to the shore in ~50º water temps





You know this one…the Golden Gate Bridge…with some London Fog!  That would be Bay Area Fog!





Sausalito…

For all of you left handers out there…




Now if for some reason you require to conduct some spying you can find it all here…some interesting and scary product available…beware the world can have eyes all over you…





Well…I must admit I enjoyed an Hawaiian micro-brew there earlier in the week…





If you want to spend all day waiting to ride a cable car you can start here…or just go up the street a couple of blocks and jump on the open third car…some folks where waiting well over an hour…







Did I tell you that U2 was in town…”Where the streets have no names”…I know this one did…but…





If you did not spend enough money on your U2 tickets and are still seeking some entertainment…here you go…dinner and an event…think Medieval Times on a different subject matter…cost $150 per person…







Levi’s Plaza with Colit Tower in the back ground…you can also climb the steps to get to the tower here…





The TransAmerican Building…







Check this road out…





女士们先生们我給您唐人街 – Ladies and Gentlemen I give you Chinatown

















Outdoor dining is available…





Speaking of dining The Stinking Rose where every item is cooked with garlic…





A local favorite out of the tourist path…

Home is where the heart and money is here…











You know this…



















Sausalito





























Their CVO parking lot…







Their stealer…







View from Sausalito…
















Ahhh…the art of Sausalito…









Just keep it simple…and the best…





Some wind surfing in some cold water…they got the wind to do it here…





Homes in the Marina District can not obtain home owners insurance due to risk…but the owners are proud to live there…Crazy…





Our fallen soliders resting place…The Presidio





Fine Art…





Finer Art…





Where’s Waldo?  and the nut house too?  Hey they are on vacation and having some fun!





Mel…Kiss my grits!

I forgot to add that I have some good pics of the boys from Castro admiring the new shop bike!

I believe I heard one of them say "little boy blue come blow my horn" but I am not sure!?

Wink! HA!
