BYORD..........
Bring your own recovery drink

Need some more of that Upstream IPA. 4 of those last night after the TNR , 2 on a empty stomach and 2 with food in me and was feeling no pain. That was a good time.

What kind of bike will ya'all be riding?

If my schedule permits, & that'll be really close, I'd like to join ya. Jeff Bergen

KEV said...

cross bikes, what time works for you?

Shim said...

Cross bikes unless your Kent, then you ride a mountain bike to make it fair for the rest of us......"Good Gravy!"

Sounds like 12:30 will work. I'll have my ultra light 25lb cross machine ready to roll. Thanks for the reply.

Shim said...

Jeff, do you need directions?

KEV said...

we have the same cross bike, plus I have my extra 10 lbs of good winter living on top of that. I'll be pulling around 205-210 lbs.

KEV said...

Jeff we could leave from my house if you want around the same time.
We could meet up with others on Capehart. The route is 41 miles from Shims, we might end up with 45 - 50 miles if we left from my place. 6632 S 163 ave.

Per yahoo maps it looks ike i'll find it OK.

Thanks for the offer Kev, but I'm headed to High gear for some facial gear beforehand anyway so I'll just probably end up at Shims. Besides, call me a pussy, but shaving 5-8 miles off in this weather won't bother me a bit.

KEV said...

you said it for me, I'll see you there.

Haro said...

Well it's 5:39am Sunday when I type this & my legs are loosening up enough to where I can walk again after that ride. Let me know when the next one is!

Thanks again for letting me tag along, that was a great route.

Also, thanks again for the Cliff bar at the 30 mile mark. I'd still be out there without it.
