Thanks Traci for setting up the newbie rides, you rock. We had a blast, Adam enjoyed his time. Adam said to remember this, Jam with ELMO

Sorry I missed the ride.
I got to the parking lot at 9:15am and was lucky enough to see another group hanging out.
They directed me towards the canyon, I only went around the lake but did see quite a few mtber's in there!
Maybe next time.

Alyssa and I had a fun time out there with everybody. Kudos to Traci for her organizing skills

[SAR_boats]

BTW,
It was good to meet Ben, Alyssa & Hubby. It was good to see the CrashMaxwell clan out there, hope the bike repairs aren't too expensive.
Thanks to Greg for reminding Jordan and I of where we were going
It was fun to watch Traci turn more and more pink as the ride progressed.

Thanks to Tee & Marcy, Nam and Justin for hanging out at Chronic Tacos

good ride peeps... even though you fockers took off w/o me... i had to catch up with My Dell and Neil a bit and the next thing i know everyone is gone! Justin killed all the climbs on the ss and i nearly passed out going up Big Red It was good to see everyone again and i believe Traci said something about an Aliso ride two weeks from now? Hopefully, my arm is healed up and i can ride decently again.

Thanks to Tito, Marcy, Chris and Justin for hanging out for hours and chattin at Chronic Tacos... the food and the scenery was good

Great photos.

I got hosed! My son's game got moved (good) but the snack family figured they didn't have to show either...... Oh well, the Heckler looked good on the back of my truck. Glad there were no carnage reports!

Darnell -

Yea - We even started a bit late - The Adrenaline Boys and clan showed up from their early am Oaks ride just as we were getting ready to leave, so we had to do the social thing for a few.

Hopefully we see you at Aliso on our next great adventure!

Thanks for Posting Pix Nam...

I just wanted to say thanks again to everyone for coming out. It's really cool to ride with everyone and have so much fun while we're all suffering. I can't wait for the next ride and I love that we're already seeing our progression. It's days like today that keep me on my bike and enjoying the Ride...

Oh 1 more for Nam

[maxwell]

Fun ride for sure!!

The kids and I all had a great time!

Lacey cleaned Big Red, and Jake and Kaylee both made it up with stopping a couple of times, but no walking. (ice cream for us all)

I got to find out why I let the Path guys work on our bikes....my mechanical abilitys SUCK! Nothing major, she just needs a new rear derailure.
Thanks for comming back to check on us Nam, and Justin.

Jake says, "thanks for the video Nam!"

So, here are our pics from today...........

Yuka and I had a great time today. Big thanx to Traci, Nam and Justin on looking out for us noobs at Peters Cyn. I kind of like these rides if I never been to the area. It gives me a sense of where to go the next I'm there plus I get to socialize with everyone.

[tkblazer]

thanks for posting the huckage pics traci... you can really see how swollen my right forearm/elbow is... i'm not THAT buff

[g-dub]

Hey, that was fun. Maybe I'll get the wife out next time. I think she was intimidated by the idea of people watching her ride, I was happy to report that you guys are very non-intimidating.

This evening I dispatched my family obligations with 45 minutes of daylight to spare, not enough time to get around Oaks, but just enough time to do another lap of Peters (somehow I always end up with just 45 minutes to ride). I decided to try the Maxwell line up the little hill by the dam. Spun out 4 times. @$#$%! Next time I'm gonna hit it with a 50 lb bike and see if that helps...
