BIKERNET REPORTER IN MIDDLE EAST–Reporter goes to Israel to cover the fighting. She is looking for somethingemotional and positive and of human interest. Something like the guy inSarajevo who risked his life to play the cello everyday in the town square.
In Jerusalem, she heard about an old Jew who had been going to the WailingWall to pray, twice a day, every day, for a long, long time. So she went tocheck it out. She goes to the Wailing Wall and there he is!She watches him pray and after about 45 minutes, when he turns to leave,sheapproaches him for an interview.
“Rebecca Smith, CNN News. Sir, how long have you been coming to the WailingWall and praying?”
“For about 50 years” he said.
“What do you pray for?”
“For peace between the Jews and the Arabs. For all the hatred to stop.For our children to grow up in safety and friendship.”
“How do you feel after doing this for 50 years?”
“Like I’m talking to a fucking wall.”

BEACH RIDE UPDATE–The Beach Ride, a charity ride for the Exceptional Childrens Foundation, was shut down in Ventura last year after a successful ten-year run. The committee is still looking for a new venue, but there’s stuff in the works. They have discussed throwing in with Jim Gianitsis with the LA Calendar show. Jim has announced it in his release, but the deal is not signed.
This is a charity event that has stood on it’s own for a decade and may continue to do so with another date at the Queen Mary.
Here’s a report from Carmela from the ECF. We hope to have a date locked in within a couple of weeks:”I am waiting for the separate contract from the Queen Mary for August, 31. Then ASAP have a core group meeting to sift all the information about July 20 and August 31, then finally decide. Frazier Park is out, Malibu is out, San Buenaventura state park and beach (our old site) is under construction this year, and they told art to try again in 2004. Micah McCloskey, of M.M. Custom Motorcycles is still hanging on to the fairgrounds. Right now, it still looks like Long Beach.
