All the ingredients were in play in the 8:30 edition of Tripper Tuesday. The energy ran high voltage and you could sense it right from the get-go. Tripp on takeoff announced that he was going to avoid the AT40 at all costs and broke into a discography that had us on a visceral trip through time. We were rocking we were rolling and when he plated Born to Run by you know who I spied out of the corner of my eye one of the stars of the Lavender Palace although he was the most diminutive of all and was without one pedal stroke.
It was a small tan spider and with each note he pranced about as if he was doing his own version of the Safety Dance. Moving with footwork as only a spider could because after all he did have a ‘leg’ up on us all.
All of Tripper’s classes are filled with his charisma but today he caught lightning in a bottle and whether it was him, the music, we the riders or our little eight legged friend this was vintage Mr. Mayhem.
