Hey VV, are you planning to go to the Monday night GCC ride? I may be able to. I'll know today.
I'm planning on joining for the Monday evening ride. Can I tie my bungee cord to you? <curious and hopeful Vega look>

I'll post a ride report tomorrow about my ride with polara426sh. That first two miles of the course is ROUGH. I mean ROUGH, baybuh! Downhill, and you can't crank hard -- the road is so rough, you have to stand up out of the saddle on the pedals, and move your weight back a bit to keep control of the bike! Think MTB'ing! More on this later....
