It was a last-minute thing, this ryde. Ya see, me and Pete (was 'not Keats', now 'not-Goat-Boy', see SabMag West) decided to help Kate (see the Ladies Page) out of her doldrums and show her how swell us SabMaggots are.

Then, with only a few days left, we unsuccessfully attempted to recruit other SMers for the ryde. Oh well. We had a great time anyway. Enjoy the pics!
