Carrot Cake Delivery To My Brother

Weljo2001 · **Posted:** Sat Jul 27, 2013 7:36 am

My little brother works in the oil industry and was in northern cali for a week. Heading back to texas, him and his co-worker booked a room in Cathedral City. Its in between Palm Springs and Palm Desert. Had made a carrot cake earlier in the day so put some in a cooler and headed out about 6:45pm its only 111 miles away but with traffic and being able to lanesplit i made it there at 8:50pm if i would have had to take a car i would not have went. Coming home the next morning in the rain it took right at an 1.5 hrs to get home.

55 MPH average that is mighty slow, guess you didn't care if the cake got wet. I averaged about 45 today but I was riding with 2 Harley WLA, not to fast but a lot quicker than walking during a war. I will send Roadking a picture to see if he can attach it to this thread

Most of the way was traffic and had to lane split. So all in all i made pretty good time. I had the cake in a cooler that was in my Givi E-55 Top Case. No chance of it getting wet. :icon_smile:

You two are too funny!!
"Someone left the cake out in the rain"... :icon_laughing:

Great Vid Weljo - Really enjoyed the night footage - you did a great job getting through that 91 Freeway traffic!! AND The icing on the cake was still intact. :icon_You_Rock:

Your lil' bro looks a lot like the pics I saw of your Pop's - glad you got a chance to spend some time with him.

DeerSlayer - As requested: Here's the pic of the old Army bikes.

Yea my brother looks alot like my dad i look more like the milkman. :icon_laughing:

If i would have had the camera set on night mode it would have looked much better. The icing on the cake did well i used the cooler with the ice packs so everything stayed nice and cool. It was still pretty warm that night out in the desert.

I saw a pic of the milkman - you don't look anything like him... but the mailman... Just Kidding!! :icon_clap:

I figured it was still hot out in Palm Springs that night - we had thunderstorms here at my house.
What would have "night mode" looked like?

Night mode would have been a much clearer video.

Is there a focus adjustment on that camera? Seems that the road signs are a little fuzzy... I was watching some youtube vids from others and the signs are a little clearer. Just wondering???
