It surprised me just a bit that Paul was the film maker... because I have never seen him use a camera of any kind!

....in fact I am one of the only ones to shoot anything in our group here in Nahant...so here's a couple of the legendary man,Paul- that I shot:

That's exactly what Paul say a lot..." wicked pissa...". You know him well!

Hey Paul
Thanks for the memories we rode a lot
Of miles since than and hope we get to ride a lot more
Until our time comes to depart this world
I'd rather be wind powered

Paul has left the building...Uhhhr... that is to say..off the grid...ummm..

Straight up....he 's off the world wide web and computer these days. I'll try and pass your thought along when I see him, Glen.

Here are some more captured clips taken from the original video

NOTE: on the original video Paul had Hotel California playing but youtube kicked the audio off so I threw in a quick song just to cover the tandem ride portion
