Denver Group Ride, 25 Feb. 2007
It looks like the weather is changing a little. If the weather is okay on Sunday...>45 F ... we'll do a Northern Metro area ride. It's a favorite of mine. Look here to see the route. It's around 30 miles but if we need more miles there's lots of places to increase the mileage.
Meet at the Broomfield Park-n-Ride (120th Ave and Wadsworth just off US36) at 1100. 'Kay?

Can we make it 11:16???? I'd rather not hang around a Park 'n Ride for 45 minutes! North Bound 76 is supposed to arrive at 11:16.

I don't think I am going to make this one. I have to work. If I keep taking sunday off the big cheese is going to start taking notice. I am down for the 4th though. Barring a serious hang-over. (saturday is UFC fight night)

I "may" be able to make this ride. 30 miles sounds great. I really need to get moving again.
Just promise to take it easy on the old fat guy.

Not sure yet if I will be here for this one. I'm going to wait to hear more about the weather 
My skinny tires won't go too far in 2inches or more of snow.

Cold weather is fine for commutes but I like warm weather for recreational rides.
I should make it if the weather holds out and I manage to avoid whatever my son came down with. That would be a miracle.... I catch whatever he brings home from preschool 9/10 of the time.
Actually using my sick time for someone who is sick...... oh the horror!

Sunday's looking good for a ride. Not supposed to be any real amount of snow accumulation in the metro area. I dunno about you all, but I'm getting a ride in.
