i KNEW it!

Yeah true, but I still haven't tried anything like Angeles Crest. Where I lived you couldn't find a climb longer than 2 miles. The Prelude is kind of like that, you want a decent climbing gear but at least they don't make you climb for 5-10 miles straight or anything.

as of right now im 90% for the prelude. im doing death valley the weekend before so it may take some serious politicking to get the lovely mrs scootcore to let me do both(im thinking of doing the planet ultra solvang 100 the weekend after the prelude as well...).

I gotta call my friend and talk him into this ride soon, I keep forgetting.:(

regardless, you've gotta come now... several of us have signed up just because YOU were gonna be there! Right M.E.???

t~

Nooooooooooooo...come to Joshua Tree instead!

Yeah, yeah... Joshua Tree!!!!

I think he should just pack a lot and stay the whole week; we could take turns putting him up for the night!

What do ya think?

Ok, we are in. Just tell M.E that my friend is too young.:D

Yeah sure, you say that now. I eat alot and I smell.:p

well, there's lots of food and I don't have a sense of smell so I, for one, won't even notice! :p

I don't recall M.E. setting an age limit.

how old is your friend? 'Cause, you know, the young guys are good for one thing (if not anything else :rolleyes: )

He's 21, but we probably wont see much of him once we start.:rolleyes:

Explain. Educate us. And how young is young?

Yeah my wife either. I dont really smell, well maybe after I ride, but thats the smell of lust. lol

... I think she'll be paying more attention when he's standing still anyway! :p

Oh and actually he' make a good wind break too, he's bigger then me.:D

Lust huh???? Okay, I guess I'll have to take your word for it!

.... not really what I was referring too but okay... :rolleyes:

... besides, he wouldn't be a good windbreaker for me anyway unless it was windy at registration since I'll be about 30 miles behind you all after the first 10 minutes! ;)

... not sayin' another word..... :p

Precisely. NO excuses, Northerner, bring it on down and place it on a bike. We're riding! :D

I know you were'nt referring to that, Im slow not dumb!:p I meant that as an also.

Fine. But thanks to your lack of cooperation, I'll end up staying uneducated and naive. :(
