ME would love nothing more that doing two at once...but in this instance, she'll be hitting the SM mountains. Sorry, Dan, but your lungs and raising valuable funds for them are far more important than my driving 7 hours in rush hour to ride a two lane highway in sub 50 degree weather. It will be an enormous sacrifice, but for you...I'll do it. I'll do it.

If this lands on a Sunday, I'm in yo. It'll probably land on a Saturday in which case I'll try and catch up w/ y'all at the end. Either way, I'll throw some bucks to the selected charity. Great idea!

I might have to try this...If, for no other reason than I've been such a no-show to all the BF rides lately, I think I'm becoming a figment of my own imagination.
But, if I go, I don't want Ovoleg to go.

Not this time. the last social ride saw me nearly have three accidents on the way home due to driving while exhausted. I don't think I've ever been that tired before, and waking up at 6am that morning didn't help.
Maybe if I get a new bike and start training...., my current ride really won't handle decent length trips (yay hi-tensile steel, 27" x 1 1/4" tires, nutted single-pivot brakes, i think steel rims, shot front wheel bearings) I can't believe it survived the last trip. I was kind of hoping it'd die so I could get an excuse to buy another one.
Love,
Fred

No, Crash...they never do. Ever.
/Actually, you should make a ride thread...as a social experiment. Include something for everybody, and you should get a decent turnout.
//I got about 10 people out to a ride I planned, and there was at least 1 from other than SD. Success!
