Cash Matthews
Hey Gang!

I will be in Costa Mesa October 19th-22nd. I may only be available in the evening of Thursday the 19th if anyone wants to get together. I spoke with Johnny Johnson today (he knows Eddie King) and it might be fun to get a group together for dinner or something!

Cash
Racer
Id be interested if dinner were late enough 7-30 ish.
You were a legend when I started racing in 1978.
Cash Matthews
Racer, I am thinking that dinner with the gang would be pretty easy to do around that time. It would be great to see everyone again. I may be playing golf that morning and wanted to see if anyone wants to join me. PK, Tim , you out there?

Racer, thanks for the kind thoughts. I loved bmx so much back then and it was all I could think about. I am not much different today! I look forward to meeting you.

spike

Cash Matthews
Stu may be working that night but said he may be able to stop by. Anyone else?
Jeff Utterback
I'll try!
Cash Matthews
Coolio. The Dusty Trails contingent is in the house. All we need is PK and Byron!
Curt
Spike, possible carpool???
spike
Yeah, carpool is cool.
Cash Matthews
Anyone hear from Sodbuster? We can't have a party in his backyard without him! Sod, you out there?
Cash Matthews
PK emailed and said he is a maybe depending on work load. Any of you guys golfers?
Cash Matthews
I get to Orange airport around 10:00 a.m. Anyone want to meet for lunch? I am playing golf at 2:00 pm at the Trump National Golf course so we can meet near there perhaps.

Can Johnny hold my beer? I would like to hang out! Jason 310-320-4559
Cash Matthews
Jason:

Wanna meet for an early lunch on Thursday? Do you mind coming that direction?
Mrs.Sod
I just checked Sod's work schedule and he's got that Thursday 10/19 off. Come on down!!! Trump National golf course is on Palos Verde pennisula cliffs. That's the golf course that's falling into the ocean and everyone knows in L.A. that it sits on the earthquake fault line. What are you crazy??? You can golf the rest of the weekend. Thursday is for BMX bench racing!! Everyone can come here, eat pizza, drink beer, trash Sod's bikes (jk), swap stories, and watch that same movie. At first I thought no one would want to watch Joe Kid but you guys can watch it like a hundred times and still see it again. Parties On!! Cash, Rick, Johnny, Tim, PK, JU, Spike, Jason, and anyone else that can make it!!!! Kevin? Stu? We're in Huntington Beach, O.C., email for directions sodbuster@socal.rr.com We've got a big livingroom and an alley for riding.
The 26incher
I down! Trump's course is right by my house. We can party @ Sod's or we could have a BBQ @ my house? Keep me in the mix, I want to play!
Gary Haselhorst
If Cash is going to town, I know some people are going to show up. Sombody get som "Pics" and post them.
Cash Matthews
The Trump thing is already paid for...hmmm...interesting.
Mrs.Sod
Can you cancel and get your money back? With a golf game and traffic we won't see you here until 7pm. And that doesn't leave much time for bench racing with the guys.
The San Diego, Valley, & West L.A. guys spend 1 1/2 hours getting here and that's without rush traffic to consider. (Welcome to L.A. driving.)

Cash please do not cancel anything. Just stick to your plan as far as the golf goes. My wife is only half right. That course had a big landslide back in '99 and another one that claimed the 18th hole a little less than two years ago I think. But they sunk big bucks into it and it was reopened to the public early this year and from what I understand it’s a beautiful course. The logistics of getting everyone together in a timely manner to hang out may be an issue though. But I’m sure we can work it out. I’ll try and call you tomorrow I still have your number.
Cash Matthews
Hey gang, I just spoke with Sod (did you know his real name is Bryan?) and we are going to meet early on Saturday for lunch, etc. I get in Thursday at 10 a.m. and have to leave to play golf at 12:15, so I might have time for a quick lunch if anyone can make it to the Costa Mesa Hilton.
The 26incher
So is everyone go'n to meet up @ Sod's on Saturday? Can we have a pit bike race? Beer bong race?
Cash Matthews
How about sometime around 11 ish at the Sod Farm!
I don't know what a beer bong race actually is, but I know I would like to watch one! Mrs. Sod has volunteered the house, Sod's bikes, filet mignon,lobster, and Dom...should be a good deal!
Jeff Utterback
Saturday? early? or late, in Jason's case...

Could be do-able...
Cash Matthews
Jeff, I am going to bail out of my meeting after the 10:30 break and try to hitch a ride to HB. If anyone can stop by the Costa Mesa Hilton, I will have my thumb out!
TIM
so Saturday the 21st at the Sodfather's 11am till curfew? is that solid? if so, i can come get yer sorry behind at the hotel, Cash.
Cash Matthews
Tim, you are in excellent driver. (Rainman voice)

I will pm you my cell phone, etc. Thanks for the lift!
Reilley1
Hmm...might rearrange some stuff if it's saturday for sure
Sodbuster
OK Cash It's official! I had my day trade approved and I now have Saturday off. So the get together at my house is on. So any of “youse guys” that are planning to make it on the 21st please pipe in and be counted.
BenOr
I just emailed Brian and Rick. United has a few odd tickets that I can use to get there with miles.

It's into LAX only and arrives at 1:30ish. Is this a 11:00 to 5:00 and done?

Ben
TIM

Cash Matthews
I just got email from PK and he may try Saturday also. This could could be fun!
spike
I'll be outta town doing Bob Seger rehearsals in the Detroit area so I'll be a no show, happens every time something cool comes up...oh well.
Jeff Utterback
Sorry Spike... do you feel like a number?

As of now I'm in! whoo hoo!

Maybe I could pick Ben up and show tardy? since I'm in Santa Monica...
HinkDog411
Hey Cash, Sod, etc.-Can John Johnson and Reilley 1 bring a friend? No, I'm not talking about Eddy King! I would love to sit in on a session like that!

-HinkDog
Cash Matthews
Hink:

Absolutely! The more the merrier.
HinkDog411
Cool! Now I just need to get the info from those guys! I look forward to it!

I am flying out to Vegas on Tuesday for golf and will be in Socal Thursday morning. I am having lunch that day with Jamie Breithaupt if anyone wants to join around 11:00 am in Costa Mesa. It looks like the party is on for Saturday at the Sodfarm! If anyone needs my cell, please email me.

Cashgolf@aol.com
Mrs.Sod
Not that this has anything to do with Cash, but we just bought a new car. The license plate arrived in the mail and between all the letters and numbers and right in the middle it says JU6. I thought how appropriate!!! Looks like it's going to be a good group on Saturday here. Sorry to hear that Spike's out of town.
TIM
PK says he can make it by 5pm. wants to know how long the shindig is going to go.
The 26incher
The Party don't stop till da 26"er passes out in a closet. Bring your magic markers! Ben, I can pick you up from LAX if you need a ride.

Hmmmm. That is an unknown quantity at this point. I’ll have to talk to cash about his schedule to establish a baseline. But I do know using the 26inchers alcohol intake ratio as a reference would be like mixing acids and bases! BOOOOOM!!!!!!

Sodbuster
OK one big BUMP here!
I'm calling out for one last head count on this "tea party" The rubberband snaps at 1:00 pm and goes until it's over! so whom can I expect to see? You never can tell. So you tell me.

Sod, Cash, etc.,

Unfortunately, I will not be coming up. I really wanted to hit this up, but the family has another plan that I'll be needed at. Sorry, but I do appreciate the "okay" to attend, maybe next time?

Thanks and have a great time guys!
