    There is no posting for the actual Bike 4 Bender Hell Ride happening this Saturday, so here ya' go! It looks like the shuttle buses are all full, which is great! I'll be loading your bike in the morning, so say hi! Be sure to hang out at the post-ride party at Hangar... it's always a blast!
    I hope to see the Nugget crew along the way, and wish the Hellacious crew a good time in Wrightwood!

    We’ll look for you at the brewery in the morning. Will you ride the course? Also, what time is last call?

    Yeah, I'm on the 7:00 bus. Due to illness, I doubt I'll ride the whole thing. Tentative plan is to bail at Angelus Oaks and ride Loch Leven down to Hwy 38 and then the wash trails back. Should still be a great ride and get to do the upper SART sections. And climb up MCR which builds character!

    Bring your Spot device so we can send a search party to welcome you back to civilization!

    Stay safe out there... And watch those sketchy loose fire road turns. No concussions this time around, ok? :thumbsup:

    Topic: Fire roads are more dangerous than the Floop?

    True story re. memory loss: My wife says that at the ER I kept telling her every three to five minutes to make sure they didn't cut my IMTB jersey off as it was my favorite!

    That and "Don't tell them it was an organized ride! I was just riding a bike in the hills..."

    Sounds like me. I must have asked a few times where my jersey is at and after the hospital. Where's my jersey "They cut it off" she says...next day, "where's my jersey at"....

    And of course you get the letter from the insurance company asking if anyone else was involved/responsible for the accident so they can pass the cost to them......Nope just me, I'm responsible for my own injuries....:(:facepalm:
