Day 1
Gregg:
Ladies and gentlemen here they are, they’ve made it, they’re here! You’ve waited one hundred years for this and now, here they are!
Look at them, look at them have a great big look at them – look at their little legs, look at their little fingers, listen to their funny little accents. You called and they came – and now here they are – look at them!
Ladies and gentlemen, build it and they will come. You built a plaza on E street, you covered it in cobbles, you opened a Thai bistro, you set the clock, then you sat yourselves down – right there – and you waited. You waited for one hundred years and now, on this Friday night in Davis, it has finally happened, your prayers have been answered, the waiting is over.
Ladies and Gentlemen the time has come, it’s 5.30, it’s the E Street Plaza, you’re here and they’re here.
Ladies and Gentlemen, let’s get this thing started after 3, 1,2, 3 – To The Century!

Day 2
Gregg:
To the edge of the city
To the open fields
To the call of the wild
To the badlands of Yolo County
To the wild animals
To the big rabbit – fluffy, big feet, buckteeth and lethal. Now I know my stuff – SHOUT – ‘ride Gary ride, for Christ’s sake Gary ride ’
Gary:
We were out on County Road, when suddenly in our path, about 30 meters in front of us stood a huge rabbit, quite skinny, about this high – it got up on its hind legs and fixed us with his eyes – Gregg thought it was very important that we leave as quickly as we could, which actually turned out to be quite quickly.
Day 3
Gregg
Today we were riding in the north of town, just a couple of hours ago and we saw a couple, I’m guessing a married couple, perhaps in their late 50s – they were on bikes, they were wearing matching cycling gear – they were both in yellow. We saw them across a junction – they looked at us, we looked at them, and as we passed in the middle of the junction the man turned to his wife and said - ‘look, they look just like us’

To marriage – we like the same things
To marriage – we do the same things
To marriage - she likes dressing me up in yellow
Gary:
To marriage
To the first time we met
To the second time we met – your eyes like bright lights
To the first date
To the first kiss
To the first night
To the second night
To the third night
To years of courtship
To marriage
To years of marriage – I still love you
To the sports shop – I still love you
To the changing rooms – I still love you
Day 4
Gary:
To Monday – where is everyone?
To Monday – it’s really quiet
To Monday – take a head count, we’re missing a few
We rode out north today and it was really quiet, we didn’t really see anyone. We got back into downtown and it was really quiet there – town just felt a bit empty.
We took a group decision to get off the bikes and have a cup of tea, we were a bit chilled from the wind. We went into Mishka’s café. There were a few people in there but not many, usually it’s really busy with people on laptops. We got talking to a guy in there – we asked him where everybody was he said – ‘Oh, it’s Spring Break, everybody heads out of town, all the students go, everybody leaves for a week. We asked him what people do in that week and he said ‘they drink, they party, they move a around a little bit, they enjoy themselves – it’s traditional’. We said – ‘You don’t have leave Davis to do that’ – and he said ‘No, you’re right, I’m staying, I’m going to have wild time here’ We wished him luck.
Gregg:
To Spring Break – 7 days of having fun
To Spring Break – 7 days of quiet reflection
To Spring Break – 7 days of just kicking back
7 days? That’s rubbish, anyone can kick back for 7 days, that’s easy – just kick back for 30 days – that’s a Spring Break, you don’t have fun for 7 days, you have fun for 30 days – come on Spring Break try harder!
Day 5
Gregg:
We lost our way – we were winding through a neighbourhood when we realised we were lost, we were trying to head east but we’d lost our bearings. We stopped on Barbara Place – a small street in the north of the town - and got the map out. We were trying to figure out a route when a young woman asked if she could help – she seemed really friendly – we told her we were lost and she showed us where to go. We thanked her and as she left she turned to Gary and said – ‘you look great’. And then as she left she just tapped him, she touched his leg, she gently touched his leg.
To my leg – you can touch my leg if you want to
To my leg – what’s wrong with my leg?
To my leg – look I can be back here, same time, same place tomorrow, let’s just see what happens
Gary:
To my leg – I’ll never wash it again
To my leg – It’s always been a favourite
To my leg – I’ll keep it forever
Day 6
Gregg :
We were riding out around Woodland city limits today, out by the Conaway Ranch, by the water there. It’s nice, just fields, it’s quiet. But what spoilt it was Gary’s mobile phone, it kept ringing – it kept chirping away – he’s got it set to sound like a bird or something. But each time he went looked at his phone, there wasn’t a call, there’s wasn’t any activity on the phone. There was a chirping sound, but nothing else.
We had somebody riding with us, Beverly, she asked if Gary was alright, she asked if he was confused. I said, he thinks his phone keeps ringing, it chirps but there’s no one calling – listen, I said, it’s doing it again. Beverly said – ‘that’s not his phone that’s the Western Meadow Lark’. Gary said – ‘that’s crazy, what’s the Western Meadow Lark doing with it’s own phone?’
To the Western Meadow Lark – it’s spring and you’re back
To the Western Meadow Lark – such a beautiful song
To the Western Meadow Lark – call me, SMS me, anything!
Day 7
Gregg:
Ladies and gentlemen here they are, they’ve made it, they’re here!
It’s the first week – they’ve done one whole week, 7 days and 7 nights – you didn’t think they’d make it, but here they are, look at them, look at them - look at their little legs, look at their little fingers, listen to their funny little accents. You called and they came – and now here they are – look at them!
The first week? A triumph! Everybody thinks so, well they think so and that’s what matters – and it’s catching on, there’s two blokes in Clarksburg cycling round and round and talking about it every night. It’s spreading, you’ll all be doing it soon, you won’t need us – of course you’ll need us, you’ll always, always, always need us, because there’s always, always, always more.
Ladies and gentlemen, build it and they will come. You built a plaza on E street, you covered it in cobbles, you woke up on this Thursday morning, you looked out of your windows, you saw two grown men on small folding bicycles and you said to yourself ‘not them again, I told them to clear off yesterday, get off my drive you clowns’
It’s happening again, right before you’re eyes. Don’t blink, don’t sneeze!
Ladies and Gentlemen the time has come, it’s 6 o’clock, it’s the E Street Plaza, you’re here and they’re here.
Ladies and Gentlemen, it’s the first week, it’s the first seven days, for a 7th time, after 3, 1,2, 3 – To The Century!
