Tomorrow is going to be considerably cooler than today, and there's a small chance of rain, so I think we should DEFINITELY RIDE!
The mountains will be way too cold, but both inland and coastal rides would be fine. I'm thinking we might do Raptor Ridge at 8:30, but I know this isn't always popular. So if there's something else you would prefer, please speak up. (and early is better)

So Pete and Jerry want to do this ride, and Julie is taking the day off nursing her knee, so let's plan on it at 8:30. I hope some of the rest of you can make it.

I see it as an entirely different, but FUN, sport. I think the knee tweak was coming on over several weeks..and I had already scheduled to see Ortho...but a minor plant and twist lifting the bike off the rack was the straw on the camel's back. It's much better now but I'm trying not to push it.

Not our favorite one but we will be there if it isn't raining.
If the Germans an suck it up
If the Germans can suck it up on a non-powder trail, I assume I can; I am concerned as doesn't a chance of rain equal a chance of a short circuit on the other side of the hill with a 50 Lb load to push up the hill. Oh yeah not my worry....
I've been checking the
I've been checking the weather radar, and it looks like we shouldn't have any precipitation until 11:00 or so. I suggest we show up and give it a try unless it starts raining before 8:00 am when most of us will have to get on the road.
