Shark Cove, Mi. - As dawn broke over the Shark Cove, our intrepid hero, the Sharkman, was shaking of the aftermath of his Banjovi Concert the previous evening. A bit groggy and knowing the electricity had gone out over night, he quickly checked his shark alarm clock with the theme from Jaw's on it, to see if he had overslept. Our hero had awaken to the sound of lightening and rain falling on the Cove and immediately realized he was supposed to be back in the peloton this morning.

Darting from his shark bed, he clicked on the shark radar as his saddened face reflected the multi colors of the rainbow from the screen. It was like the storm of all storms!

The old Shark always hates making the call on the ride early, but if he doesn't get the word out by 7 a.m. some riders (including him) begin to head to the start hoping for a ride. Sharkman doesn't want anyone to get hurt either from a bad down pour or more concerning, lightening.

As soon the Nations leader saw the lightening warning he knew he had to make the call.

He immediately texted both Mad Dog and Yeti Boy who were going to ride over with him, to break the news. Mad Dog's only response was “OK.” Sharkman simply assumed Mad Dog would not ride.

Sharkman continued to watch the radar, always worried that by start time, the sun would be out and it would be a wonderful day for a ride. 

But as 8:00 a.m. approached it was pretty obvious the our hero had made the right call.

At 8:04 a.m. the first text from Mad Dog arrived along with the photo above:

“Yea I'm not the only one!”

Sharkman, in shock, replied:

“You are insane! Who else showed? You must be soaked......any lightening? I see you took the photo from under the protection of the school entrance.....ha ha!”

Mad Dog immediately responded:

“No lightening and not a rider, couple meeting in secret. I was sure the rain would stop.”

Sharkman went on to warn Mad Dog about the possibility of lightening and that he  was going to riding home in the worst of what was going to fall for the remainder of the morning!

The Nation is very concerned with Mad Dog's mental condition and immediately  announced that they would be taking up a collection to pay for some counseling for his overly optimistic sense of the weather, causing him to ride in hopes, “it will get better...”

Please make your checks out in any amount, to Sharkma c/o the Mad Dog Psycho Fun, Shark Cove, Mi.

But the Nation will be back at it this Saturday!
