13 men entered the gloom at scramble this morning looking to get a few miles and a lot of coffee in to start the day. 1 other unknown person parked about 5 spots down from us and left about 2 minutes before the pax on the same route. Despite invitations and encouragement, this unknown gentleman refused to join us. Another sad clown waiting to be found.
