    Nah, we are only doing the 50....which in reality is only 44.5

    Now you could do the 100...but even then you get shorted as it is only about 88 miles.

    The high on Gooseberry Mesa is now forecast for 62, morning low of 40. Rain in the evening. Looks 'bout as perfect as it can get. :thumbsup:

    But this conflicts with the Solvang Century. Not that I'm doing either of these...:whistling:

    I thought of your love of exposure when I watched this one... Exposure usually doesn't bother me, but I know which line I'm taking. :oops:

    I've actually become more blasé about exposure, up to a point. SART didn't bother me; GE has a bit of it that also didn't bother me last time I rode it; I may still do San Juan... Yeah, I might walk some of the gnarlier sections of Gooseberry's primo-looking stuff, but I'd actually enjoy it. I think.

    What... Did I hear you say that we need to schedule a Holy Jim to San Juan ride? :thumbsup: Or maybe even a Trabuco to San Juan ride?

    And those guys are picking on you for not driving to Laguna to fight the crowds... :p

    There were some big ones out there!

    I survived. No crashes... I'm probably 19/19 single speeders, but that's ok!
