My goal was to go from Lee vining to the entrance to Yosemite Park and give a rubber chicken to the park ranger. I wore my Virginia Tech Jersey. It was fun as cars went by and some people yelled go Virginia Tech as I was biking the 3,000 ft from the base. One of the people was actually a park ranger. I yelled to him that I would see him at the top. And I did. And I gave him a rubber chicken! 😁 But wait it gets better! Another park ranger stopped by the entrance Booth. And I gave him a rubber chicken. But then he exclaimed, paraphrased, " wait a minute. You were here years ago and gave us all rubber chickens! We ran around with them. Many years ago. ". I said that would have been 2019 when my friends and I biked from Menlo Park to the Sierra through Yosemite. Wow. Impact. Rubber chicken impact. I explained that I like to give the park rangers on all of my climbs rubber chickens. Mostly around the San Francisco Bay area. As appreciation. Seems they've really appreciate it in return. Rubber chicken reciprocal appreciation. Need that on a t-shirt. Will keep doing it, and saying thank you along the way. Bawk Bike Bawk! 🐔😄
