Anyone interested?

I plan to leave home about 6:20 am or so. The ride up to Folsom Bikes. Not sure where I'm going after that. Thinking about Malcolm-Dixon, Deer Valley, and dropping around to Bass Lake and maybe Serrano and Wilson. Lots of options. Should be a good time, and the current forecast has it in the low to mid 90's.

Probably end up around 65-75mi, and 4000 feet, maybe a little more.

Yup, perfect. Another friend of mine named Rick will be along too. And we might pick up some more folks at Folsom Bikes. I posted the ride on their board as the 'B Group' ride.

Anyone else?

I'm doing 70ish miles with DJ tomorrow so I'm most likely joining you guys from the shop for the "B-ride."

Has it been that long? I have very painful memories of that ride. Thankfully, I've done it a bunch of times since and it's no longer the sufferfest it was.

Hey Joel, I might meet you at the usual spot. Around 6:25? I'm just coming off a cold. If I feel good in the morning, I'll be there. So don't wait for me. I can always catch you at FB if I'm a little late.
