Ok, now it's tomorrow (I'm appending yesterday's post). I was out riding with Nellie on Saturday for a short bit, had a beer with him and Donna back at their house, then headed off to catch Matty at his house. Settled in for a quick coldie, when Matt gets up and disappears into the house. He comes back out with a new helmet box and begins to open it. I jokingly asked if he'd gotten himself a new helmet to match his bike...but then he pulls out this gorgeous bit of headgear and tells me it's for me!
The backstory; some time ago, we were all discussing our favorite movies and I'd mentioned that Easy Rider is mine. Fast forward to the present; apparently Matt stumbled upon a website that sells replicas of the helmet that Peter Fonda wore in the movie, and he figured it would make a great basement-warming gift. He put the order in and then put the word out to the crew, letting them know what he'd done, and everyone pitched in on it. Thanks, guys!!
I dare not ride with this for fear of anything happening to it, so it will have a place of distinction in the basement.
Who's got the coolest friends in the world? This guy!!
