I had both Kevin's with me though. You could ask them how they felt
With the cage in that truck you feel no fear.
Well like the AZ run last year we had quiet a few runners at Truckhaven. We started the last night out very relaxed and calm until PYRO Rick complained about the lack of a 6' plus flame on the fire and Johnny Johnstone made the mistake of listening to Char and putting a bag of trash on. Shortly after Rob calmly asked "is that a propane bottle in there?" Of course everyone denied that it could be possible. Who could ever be goofy enough to do that. Then after closer inspection we realized it was in fact a propane bottle. After the initial scream of the expected OH $%*#!!! I decided that it was not a wise idea to burn this bottle and proceded to fish it out with the poker. While I was kicking the bottle away from camp I realized that everyone else was about 100 yards away and still makin tracks. (As Charlie Daniels put it "they were all out there steppin and fetchin like there heads was on fire and there asses was catchin".)
THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT GUYS. :fire:
Rob said he would have gladly stayed to help but when you see the fireman (Ray) run either follow or pass him.
Char was the hero of the moment though because although she shoved Rick down and stepped on him to help get traction for the long run ahead she did grab the bottle of rum so it would be safe.
I think I saw John hiding behind his wife also but that's to be expected from him (as everyone knows he is kinda wimpy).
I guess I would have ran also but all I could think about was saving the lives of my fellow wheelers so I wouldn't have to go alone the next time.
