As many of you know, me and 11 of my best guy friends hit the road last fall. Here's all the stuff you didn't see in the photographs.
In the early wintery months of 2008, eight celebrated, award-winning and downright awesome photographers from all over the country grabbed their sticks to ride the mountains of Mammoth, California . This marked the beginning of what is now known as...wait for it...The Mammoth Men. What ensued during that getaway was a week filled with adventure, spontaneity, hijinks and storied tales. A bond was forged amongst these men and a commitment made to doing it again, and doing it often!
During the Summer of 2008, The Mammoth Men hit the road again. Only this time, they loaded up 10 photographers in a Prevost rock star tour bus, drove for five days up the California Coast and shared it with everyone via their traffic happy blog. So much so that their blog readers actually got to choose their day-to-day adventures while watching them play out the next day. The blog following continued even after the West coast trip ended and garnered media attention in the blogosphere.
Well, the guys are back for their much anticipated third installment of The Mammoth Men. Watch the mayhem unfold as these 12 photographers board their Prevost and head into the American Southwest to document their Route 66 road-trip. Packed with more guys, more miles and more camaraderie, it's not just a roadtrip...it's a lifestyle.

Hey Guy, this is random, but were you at the G Love concert? I saw someone that looked like you, but it 'twas dark, so I could have just made that up... either that, or by my staring, trying to figure out if it was you or not, you may have feared becoming the victim of a decent stalking.

For some reason Napoleon Dynamite kept coming to mind, maybe it was the awesomeness, maybe it was the font... :)

So I guess dressing up in wild under garments and jumping in the air for a belly touch is considered cool these days???? More like little boys then men...................sad, in that pathetic way................
