Last night, well actually this morning (2:30am), I rode from my house [Courthouse] to my girlfriends house [the beach], a 12 mile trip...on my longboard. It took me a hair under 2 hours, with two stops at 7-11's for water. It started to rain on me like 1/3 into the trip, but it didn't bother be much; since (a.) the forrest gump mentality began overcoming me and since I've gone this far I might as well keep going, and (b.) the fact that most likely no one in the history of virginia beach has ever done that...ever, so knowing that I was doing something no one has ever done before, made me feel really good. High points of the trip were riding down Rudee inlet bridge (thats a steep hill for vb), and riding on the street the whole way nearly getting hit my semi-trucks, oh and one more thing....I never hit one red light the entire way.
