    Roll Call and reminders...
    Who is in, so we don’t leave anyone behind.

    I’m not a Ride Leader Nazi like @mtnbikej :p but a couple things you want to remember:
    • Helmet.
    Uh, I won’t ride with someone without one. Sorry not sorry! :)

    A gnat net might be a good idea for tomorrow.
    I’m bringing a 70oz. Camelback with 6 scoops of Tailwind and a 24 oz. water bottle of pure water.

    If you really like it out there, the full version is in October... :whistling:

    Two (of the many) Canadians that you are riding with can fill you in... See if it fits into your level of pain seeking.

    Why dang it??? You know your going to have a blast. And you will be so cheerful when you get home your hubby will think it's the best B- Day present ever. Or that's the way I look at it when I am gone for hours riding my bike. Not sure my wife agrees but in my head she does. Haha. See you soon

    I just went to pump up my rear tire and the valve stem is trashed, it let all the air out even when I closed the valve all the way
    Anyone willing to help a girl out at the park n ride, I’ve not changed tubeless yet :gotnothing::gotnothing:

    Well... This is some kind of record. You're not even in Wrightwood yet. Last time we at least made it to mile 4...

    I'm gonna go duck and cover now.

    Edit: Hmmmm... On further inspection, you were the only one with gears at that point. Coincidence?
