HEY NOW!
It looks like I'll be riding my bicycle from Fresno or
Merced up to the Donner Pass show. It'll be about 300 to 350 miles
depending on start location and I plan on over 60 mi/day (lots of
climbing) The route goes throught Yosemite, over Tioga Pass, up 395
and over to Tahoe, around the lake, and up to Donner. If anyone else
out there is sick enough to think this sounds like fun, drop me a
line, it would be great to have some company. Timing, mileage and
route are very flexible for me so any suggestions are welcome. For
those of you taking more conventional modes of conveyance, if you happen
to pass a biker in tye-dye struggling up some 2000 foot climb, pull
over and donate a cold one to the cause, or at least shout some
words of encouragement as you pass.

On a completely different tack:
At the Ventura shows, in the inner recesses of the
campgrond back by the bathroom/shower area, there was a group of
people who had set up a 15'x15' or so movie screen and were showing
all kinds of trippy movies on (at least) Sat night. I was lucky enough
to happen on by when they showed The Hog Farm Movie. This movie
appeared to my amazed, stoned, and astounded eyes, to consist
largely of footage from The Movie (of Prankster origin) and had
narration that seemed to be the multiple microphone, tape delay,
electronic rapping thing described in various books about the
pranksters. Soooooo..... a few questions: What does anybody know
about this movie? about the Hog Farm past and present ? and, does
anybody know who those wonderful people who set up the movies were ?
I'd like to send them my thanks. If you go to Ventura next year be
sure to look for these folks, they had all kinds of great stuff to
watch & listen to.
