    I think car door to car door, we'll be somewhere in the 13.5 - 14.5 mph avg. Nobody gets dropped - unless you ride through an intersection in front of the ride leader.

    We'd love for you to come join us! Dare I keep my finners crossed?

    Editing: I just looked at your journal. I think you'll fit in just fine.

    Right now it's looking good, and it's a pace I think I could probably handle. I'd be the one bringing up the rear on the hills, and probably on the way down too. It'll get me to kick my butt back into gear, I've been a slug lately.

    TH and I just made a co-executive decision (without the Supreme Decider ).

    Start time: 9:30 am on our bikes

    Rain cancels cause I'm a fragile flower of femininity and I will wilt -- or I might melt. Depends on which personality is prevalent that day.

    You can move me to the Yes, weather permitting. If it's raining at my house when I get up, I'm not likely to make the drive over the hill for the chance it will clear up.
