I would like to ride lost valley some day, it's one of the trails I haven't been to yet. I am usually riding alone, so some of the more remote places I don't attempt (plus I live way south of st louis, so it's over and hour to get to the chesterfield area). This summer I have been a golf widow, with lots of tournaments and stuff, so it was me and the 5 year old every weekend. That's over pretty much for the winter at least, so once my back improved enough I hope to get back out on my bike.
At SIUE, I was the one that caught up to you guys near the end of the ride, with Traci from the Alpine shop. I was the fat older lady on a brown gary fisher hardtail.
