Have to say, looking at mid 30's with wind chill makes it hard to get motivated.

Mike that pic is so thoughly depressing its redicuous  . What's even more amazing is that Alan's *smiling*. But maybe that's because he knows he'll be in Sunny CA this weekend. Thanks Eric for posting your ride. Might have to take you up on it, we'll see. Mike, i'll even offer to pick you up on the way. Coffee on me. |

I can do three bikes & three people comfortably. 4 with a bit of a squeeze. If we've succeeded in roping Mike into this we could all meet at his place & go from there. If just us 2 I can just pick you up at home.

An excellent ride! My thanks to Mike, Tim and Tim, Phil, and Lacy. Very enjoyable miles, only one flat and no incidents. I was glad we could make it out while the weather is still decent. End of ride stats shows us at 3 hrs 10 min in the middle of Zone 2- just as advertised. BTW: Blackburn's new AirStik 2Stage pump is a very nice piece of gear. Nice ride folks!  |
