Saturday is probably better for me too. I'm looking forward to doing the modified section when I'm not surrounded by other riders and can see the lines better.

So, Connector Sat. at 9:00 right?

Connector @ 9 on Saturday

I'll let you know about Friday, probably Thursday morning or so. Is that too late?

Let's do 10am Friday at Olmstead. That way I won't get stuck in morning traffic on my way up there, and I can sleep in a little bit on my day off.

I'll put my new chain on the bike tonight, already got the tire fixed .

Oh yeah I need a tube or two also. I think I have some at the house but will resolve that as well.

Bert and I rode Olmstead today at exactly the same time. It was a little cool at first, but warmed up to the perfect temperature. It's pretty dry except for the one mud hole just after the parking lot.

I'm good for Friday.

Dudes,

Randy and I are going to do connector and FDLT tomorrow. Meet at Connector @ 10. It's gonna be sweet (as always).

Randy - I bought some tubes so I'll give yours back and I've got that polylube too.

Nelson - what is the snow like up in Tahoe? Do you think we could squeak out one more HITG ride?

Ok, that's good. I'm looking forward to the ride and testing the polylube.

Today's ride was great!

I talked to Bert and he might be there also.

As for number of loops, why don't ride from the Connector and do FHLT once. When we get back to the Connector and we still feel frisky then we can do another lap.

My afternoon and night has been; try to get our router working again. It refuses. Drive into Placerville and buy a new router. We get it home and connect it all up and..... nothing. Called tech support and find out we have a bad router. I would just go get another one from Office Max, but this was the only one of this model they had. So tomorrow we have to go to Placerville to get a refund on this one and then drive to Folsom's Best Buy for another router.

I was thinking the same thing. I've been wanting to do two full loops but stuff keeps getting in the way.

26.9. That's how many miles Matt and I did today. Bert was going to join us but he found something broken on his bike as he was packing to leave. Up Connetor, 2 laps of FHLT and back on Connector. My legs are pretty tired.

Yeah I'm tired too. Met some nice people on the ride today though, which was cool. A lot of people were out there though.

It was strange today. On the first lap we saw only a few. We were wondering where everybody was. Then on the second lap there were lots and lots of people. Go figure.

I think I will take the day off from riding tomorrow.

I'm still battling this sickness. Getting better, but not anywhere near 100%. Just got back from Tahoe. Weather was pretty chilly. Did a quick ride on the TRT and there was some snow on the trails, but all rideable.

I think it's supposed to snow during the week, so HITG may get covered by next weekend. I have Thursday and Friday of. Anyone riding?
