How about June 27th, since the first one was schedule on the same day as Red Trolley, this one can be schedule on what was supposed to be the date of Green Trolley.

I am doing the LA Wheelman double on the 27th.

I am doing a scavenger hunt on the 27th... and an early start on the 28th will not allow me to be there...

The scavenger hunt is one of my continuing education classes for my advanced teaching degree... :roflmao2:

28th is better for me but I could probably make the 27th. It'll be my last ride before I get a real job.

There are no "real" jobs anymore Frank........unless you move to China or India....oh, and some parts of Korea....SOUTH Korea for clarity.;)

Sweet. We only need one more person to make an official forum ride (friend I may or may not bring is not one of us). Or so I'm told it takes at least three. Or perhaps I was being propositioned. Same thing really.

27th = I'm out, way out. Even tomorrow I don't know if I'm able. Been feeling kinda barfy all day. If I'm there at 8:30, I'm riding.

There seems to be something going around these past couple months that causes route slips to become extremely inaccurate. Just sayin'.

Just gotta have some patience when dealing with Ebay. It's not like your balls are hurting that bad anyway.

Your saddle makes baby jesus cry. Who cares about the price, just get a new one, quickly.

Oh yeah. Thanks guys. Good fun, even if there was a bit of a "misunderstanding" about the rest stops. :rolleyes:

I almost forgot. I'm keeping a look out for him, especially the next time I'm "out kicking ass".
