Moto,
I signed up for the metric Desert Classic. I don't have anything against the tanks ride, it's just that I won't be in town for that one.

You kinda had me scared a little there about the tanks ride. Like maybe you knew something I didn't.
We just sent in our reg for the tanks and are still heavily considering the classic. I think we would do the metric also. Might be a little hot to do our first full century.
Pink bike, do you wanna try and hook up? You are coming with hubby this time, right? I will be with mine and we decided to ride our singles. We are gonna camp out off hwy 74 so we will be about 35 min from the staging area. We would like to get there early so we can beat the heat. Lemme know.

Looking forward to meeting a female rider, not many up here that I know of.
Hope Denise can come, the more the merrier.
Have you seen the forcast? Looks like it's suppose to cool down a little. YAY!

brenda,
really great to meet you and ride a little with you. we kept meeting up with that faster group then drifting back when we couldnt hold that pace. they were fast, eh? all in all i thought it was a great ride, very flat with mostly favorable winds!
hope to see youall (plus alex, plus denise?) at the desert classic.laurie

Yeah, it was great to meet you and ride for a little ways together. I had to stop and adjust my saddle at the first sag. We rode with a few guys for a while, but I kept having to adjust every so often. I think I stopped for my saddle 6 times, but I got it figured out by the end. I got the new saddle a while ago but have been screwing with it on almost every ride. I am sure I got it right now!! (until the next ride)
We had fun anyways, can't believe how FLAT it is down there! I needed that kickstart in the morning and it was nice to have some help with the wind! We won't be doing the classic cuz hubby has taken off to many Sat already and they are very shorthanded as it is. We are looking at doing the Luna ride Memorial weekend if he can get it off.
