It never really occurred to me that that "I'm up" and "I'm down" mean exactly the same thing in this context

Hey Bill. What time are you going. If it is after 5 I'm in. It's been over a month since I rode though, so I would probably only keep up until we got outta the parking lot .

I can't make Thursday this week but I'll be there Wednesday. If you're up for two days of punishment.

Hey Aaron... can't make it tomorrow, I guess I'll ride with MORE. Does anyone think I'll need a light for an 6:30-8:30 ride? My MagicShine batteries are still in the mail

I'll be there on Thursday. You don't need lights.



I'll probably be riding a lot more in the next month or so, thinking about doing the SM100.

I can't really differentiate between yellow and orange for difficulty. Both are very easy (technically). I suppose yellow has more climbing, but you'll be fine with just a few more rests. Blue is harder, but still not overly technical.

Sorry I just saw this or I would have given you a call earlier. I whimped out. I am pretty sure cars were floating in the parking lot at one point. I really want to get out and ride atleast once a week though, but this week is shot as far as after work is concerned. Wanna go one day next week? I am good any day except for Tuesday or Friday.

I'll email you my number.

David

Yellow was completely flooded. Submerged the bike well past the cranks. (Pedaled underwater for a few strokes at one point.) Good call not to go. I'm going to have to tear down everything this weekend and grease it.

I can do Wednesday of next week if we want to get a group together. Cleaned and tuned up the Klein last night, it's been way to damn long since I've ridden it.
