At the moment it looks like the weather will be OK next weekend. Fingers crossed!

I haven't done much riding in the last few weeks so I'm going to be even slower than usual going up the hills.

Since it gets dark around 5 now, the earlier we leave, the better. That way we won't need to stress out about it getting dark.

I had proposed 7 am originally. Is that still OK?

One possibility is that the slowpokes like me could leave at 7 and the faster climbers could head out a bit later. You'll still pass me heading up Hamilton.

LeeBob is going to be driving the route and keeping tabs on us. He'll have snacks for the summit of Hamilton. There will be limited room in the Element for ferrying people - 2 extra people and 2 bikes, tops, so don't count too heavily on having a ride available (or, be patient).

Traci, that would be super if you could join us, but it could be an awfully boring day for you! I'd hate to have you take up a weekend day just sitting behind the wheel of a car... but it would be nice to see you, its been ages ( I'm no help am I? )
