    This is awesome. If I come I'm totally going to bankroll the raffle. What can I win?

    Of course, if you don't play, you don't win. Even if you don't win the money goes to a very worthy cause, and to a great organization that takes care of the trails in the San Gabes :thumbsup:

    When will the breakfast end? 10:30? Trying to figure out the latest we should be there if we were to do a ride before the raffle/breakfast.

    PS Ken Burton will be open that morning?

    Ken Burton is open now. The Grand Re-Opening ceremony will be part of the Pancake Breakfast.

    Breakfast ends at 10:30am when the raffle starts (as long as the pancakes don't run out earlier!) Note that you can't buy raffle tickets once the raffle starts. I wouldn't be trying to cut it close if the raffle matters.

    PMBC is hosting a ride starting at 6:30am from JPL up Brown and down Ken Burton. I would factor ~3 hours to ride the loop unless you plan to go race pace. If you don't want to ride up early, I'd just go direct to Pancake and ride afterwards.

    Sounds awesome. Hope I can wake up early enough to make it.

    I'm thinking about cruising to the dam with my GF after the raffle. How far is it?

    Unfortunately I will be hiking it into camp from the JPL lot, messed up shoulder dented seat stay! Maybe I can be the winner of the Stache 5"

    Hiking from JPL to the raffle and back is a 5 mile round trip. Hoofing it all the way to the dam and back to JPL is a solid 10 mile hike.

    2.5 miles. 295ft elevation gain. Takes me about 20-25 minutes to get from the parking lot to Gould.

    Here is the Strava data if you want to hike all the way to the dam. It's not quite 10 miles like I thought it was.

    Great turnout today at the annual MWBA Pancake Breakfast, and almost immediately as I and @Sasquatch9billion arrived Mrs. @Mikie Robin Mcguire recognized my imtbtrails jersey and received a warm and friendly welcome and hug. Also met @psm , @Luis , and @Cisco Roots cool people. Great event and enjoyed it till the end. 2016-05-01 19.26.02.jpg 2016-05-01 19.25.07.jpg
