I'm not sure if I can make it, my MTBs are down under repair.

There is The B2B next weekend.
But, I may not be able to commit to the entire day, like
I ahd planned. So it is possible we could do STT next weekend.
I'm not sure if I can make it, my MTBs are down under repair.
Does this mean that " My Mt Bike ahs a flat"....:D
Can you get it repaired by tomorrow??? ( I have a tube...:rolleyes: )
Come on anyone... it is a gradual up hill. Not like doing Baldy.....

I would love to drew, but this weekend is bad for me too. Maybe in a few weeks if you wanna do it again I can reserve the day with my boss....er, wife.

I think that's a great idea. I'm going tomorrow, but
will plan this ride in a few weeks, and give a week or more notice.
Any takers for Sat AM??

Wish I could make it, Drew! Hopefully, next time. Have a great ride!
Had a great ride! Sommoner ( Kevin ) showed up , sporting his new
Fat Tire jersey, and we car pooled in his car.
He has a double bike rack, so it worked out great.
I was surprised how easy he made this ride look, seeing
as he said he just started riding recently. ( not sure if he's telling the truth..:rolleyes: )
The weather was perfect, and the trail conditions couldn't be better.
Here are a couple of pics, only took about 8. Was too busy riding to
take a lot of Pictures.

I'll plan on doing this again in the next few weeks, and give notice so it can be planned.
It really was a good time.

haha I didn't even see this thread... I need to pay more attention. I have some pics to post as well. It was a really good time riding with Drew. I didn't make it look that easy...:rolleyes: :D remember Drew I rode three days in a row before this so I was kinda primed. It was nice to ride with someone with more experience, you can learn a lot from them. I am about to ride Whiting so when I get back I'll post my pictures.

That's not my data,I just posted the link!!
But if anyone asks, just tell them it's yours, they'll never know.
Besiedes, I'd be hard pressed to do that ride on less than 2 hours.
It's 89:53.
Dang Chimivee! That's one good Garmin you got there.
Would that make it a "Marmin"?

WHA?!!!!!111
What's broken? I thought all that was wrong was a stuck link in the chain. If there's anything wrong with it, send me the bill, Jeff.
If I'd have known you had to send it in for repairs, I'd have offered a long time ago.
