I remember helping SK try to wrestle that thing into a small disk. It didn't work, if I remember correctly.

Right. It doesn't work. It is an illusion. Even now, SK has only been hypnotized or something, to believe that Bubba actually got it back into its teeny bag....

JoBob- thanks for the excellent pics! Our very own ride photographer! I too didn't realize how hard you worked to get up to the Junction Cafe- but....you did and that was what counted! Good job!!!!!
We'll do the ride in the fall when the temps are cooler- that's when I did it with Glen- just the two of us went- and it was a screamer going down!

Great photos - great riding. You guys are tough doing climbs in that temperature. When I finished my ride around lunch my computer said it was 36 degrees C (about 97 degrees F) I cant imagine riding hills in that.
WELL DONE ALL OF YOU.
The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

My first thought when I saw that last photo was "That looks like a CalTrans job!"
(that was a popular line when I worked doing contract archaeology for CalTrans. That's about the right ratio of folks standing around with hands on hips to folks actually working! No offense intended to anyone who works for CalTrans! The joke could just as well to most of the digs I worked on - same ratio of "dig bums" [usually un(der)paid students] to supervisors!)

I've been informed that it is Dr. Bubba's own personal TARDIS so the rest of us are doomed to embarrassing pictures of puzzlement and ineptitude. Originally Posted by maillotpois

The trick to mine is to have the zipper on the opposite side from where you want to fold it.

Close. Knit it himself but only in a very attorney-like gray during a Xmas visit to his mom's. Didn't realize how much garter stitch would grow.
