Matt I may meet up with you guys at the bottom of 49 and ride clementine>connector, but then double back just hit culvert/confluence. I know there is no way I can ride +25miles and ride on Tuesday @ HITG.

 

And you call yourself a MAN?

Come on out! I think I have three other riders coming. It's kind of an all or nothing deal with them though. If one backs out, they'll all back out.

9AM at the confluence lower parking lot (before the bridge)? Please confirm.

 

No worries, Lance.

I'll be there at the confluence at 9 with my buddy Joe.

 

I'm back after being away from the list a couple of days. I spent way much time with in-laws the last couple of day.

I will be at the Conflunce 9am Sat.

 

I will not be there tomorrow. I am beat and there's no way I'll be up and able to ride 25 miles at 9AM.

Have fun.

I may just hit GB a little later to get my riding in.

 

Did you end up riding, Mike? You missed a pretty fun ride!

Had a great time today. It was awesome to meet you finally, Nelson. Thanks for the downhill/riding tips on the back half of divide.

Here's the ride from today: http://trail.motionbased.com/trail/activity/6170317

 

Matt- did you guys hit culvert confluence or stonewall confluence?

I did okay on the way out until I hit fuelbreak/culvert/confluence; started cramping up. Still did most of the jumps though...just with some minor discomfort.

I was thinking I did about 14miles, but you guys did 22 of which 11 was FDLT. So maybe I did closer to 11

I followed that other Lance on the way out for some of the connector...I was right on his tale until the climbing...then as usual...owned!

Good seeing you guys and hope I'm in full recovery by Tuesday.

 

It was great seeing you again Lance. It's been way to long since we last rode together. Nice to see Nelson and Joe again too. And it was good meeting new faces.

Good ride today guys. Nice to see everybody.

 

Sweet ride, good to meet and see everyone! Kevin and I weren't feeling the climb at the end so went down stonewall confluence. I thought I'd be more sore/tired than I am right now.

That Garmin tracking thing is nice...I'll have to add it to the list...

Can't wait for HITG. Lance, I'll pick you up at the end of where the trail lets out to the road. What parking lot do you guys meet at to start the ride?

 

Nope. Played LEGO Star Wars with Ryan all morning.

Hitting GB early tomorrow morning.

 

Actually, Joe had an accident on Connector and hurt his wrist pretty bad. We bailed from connector at the gate and rode down Old Foresthill Rd. Got some pretty good speed goin . I hope he's OK; His hand was swollen when we got to the car, but looked a lot better after he'd iced it for an hour or so. I went up to Reno tonight - just got back, so I haven't talked to him since we got back today. I'll know more tomorrow I suppose.

 

1:20 for 15+ miles isn't too bad for GB!

It's a bit smoky out there, but the tennis courts at the end of the ride made it all worthwhile. A large breasted woman wearing the wrong bra for sports activities and swinging a tennis club is always a good thing.

 

Your camera must be broken?

 

The smoke is very bad up here today. I was going to ride Olmstead with my wife, but it's to bad.

I hope it's gone by Tuesday.

 

I have a photographic memory.
