How does either Saturday, Aug 29th, or Sunday, Aug 30th, work on everyone else's calendars? If that's not a good weekend for the majority, I'll post a list of dates.Originally Posted by ny biker

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

Lordy, we're planning ahead! I can't think of any reason why either of those dates wouldn't work for me. Originally Posted by Kalidurga

Labor day is not until Sep 7, so this is the weekend before.
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...

That last weekend in August is good for me, and I'm all about lazy rivers over whitewater any day! It probably *will* be less busy than July since schools will be back in session so families may stay closer to home and summer group outings (youth groups, scout groups) won't be scheduling anything.
The last time I was on that river I got such a bad sunburn that I couldn't bend my legs to walk normally for several days and couldn't wear shoes for a week.
