The riders (part 5 of 15)

This is Jerry -- beer (and wine) man extraordinaire. Jerry is the
oldest member of the group -- 70, a retired CA state highway cop, from
Santa Cruz (or thereabouts). Jerry rides a recumbent, and sleeps on a
cot, which folds up smaller than my Thermarest self-inflater. (Both
of these facts make me jealous sometimes.) Jerry's a little slow
going up hills, but FLIES down 'em. Amazing fact: Jerry joined the
Trans-Am 3 days after completing the Southern Tier (So California to
St Augustine). He's 70 years old and he's riding back and forth
across the USA, people!
