And you got to meet the wonderful jobob, and the really-not-so-wonderful aka_kim too.

AKA_KIM? I am SO confused. Are you the one who was with Jobob? Yes, and I got to meet MR Jobob too.
I got to meet so many people and I'm still not sure who they all are!

[Bike Goddess]

Not to worry Ms Mimi- They are all GREAT! When I took you to the hotel to get changed after our little jaunt up the river, Jobob, Leebob and Kim were the three folks standing by the elevator. When you came back down, we were waiting for you! Hope that helps!

Friday- March 28th eh? I'll see if my little group would be interested. Sarah usually has that day off and I know she would love to come. We kind of play it by the weather reports as we don't like to go up there in the rain.

Are you planning a ride to the summit or just to the ranger station?????????

Good heavens, for ME, that would be the Ranger station. I plan to goad the guys to go to the summit, while I snail my way to the Ranger station.

BikeGoddess, how many are in your group?

Deedolce- 1st I would tell you that if you would like a chance at the summit, do the South Side first as it is inifinitely easier (all up but more flat areas) than the North Side which is up up up once you get into the canyon.

I like doing both sides, I'm strong enough to do the summit either way. However, I'm less tired from the South Side and a bit faster as well.

How many in our group?- Depends on what day of the week. If I get an email out in the next few days we'd probably be a gang of 7. We'd start at Heather Farms- since you know the area, I trust you know how to get there. As I said before, the option for N or S is easier if you start there since it is so close to the Iron Horse trail (we always come back via the N as food calls at the end!) People ride their own pace- it's always YOUR ride.

If indeed my buddies consent to Friday instead of a different day next week, you will have the honor of escorting our oldest rider Joe Shami. He's now done 39 weeks in a row and still cranking. He's quite a character as you might imagine. He would be riding over from Lafayette to meet us.

Do let us know a confirmation of the dates and then I'll get the word out to my friends too.

Looks like it's Monday, March 24th! It's their usual day off, and I guess work has been too crazy for them to change it.

Can anybody join us? I hope so!! We could get there, I don't know, 10:00?
