Fully Loop, Saturday, Jan. 19. Meet at the courthouse's lower lot at 8 a.m., riding by 8:30 sharp.

Get to know your fellow STR WLC contestants. We'll do a full loop together at whatever pace everyone is up for (I'll sweep). If people are down for more laps after that, we can split into subgroups based on rider pace. I know i'll be doing at least one more lap; my goal is three loops for the day. Hope you all can make it; looking forward to meeting those of you i don't know already.

I like riding at that time, it still allows you to do everything else you wanted to and leaves open the option of riding a second loop.

Does the loop close at a specific time? lol

Just kidding

Riding early is good if you have a lot planned for the day ofcourse I just have been getting up early for work often so I like sleep when I can get it

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say you don't have kids waiting at home.

Actually, i'd prefer to do the ride even earlier, but i wanted to give folks from L.A. and North S.D. time to get to Fullerton. I'm just hoping that i'll still have time to score a Loop hat trick.

Is there a Geoladder route that we will be following?

Also, can someone post directions or an address to the courthouse? I've never done the route and dont really know where to go.

Thanks..

What's that about girl scout cookie sales? Are you trying to get an edge or something?

Can I get some Samoas?

you'll just see him in the lot and at the lake - he's going to help Maddie ride her new X-mas gift, and we think the whole loop might be too much.

Thanks Nam your a sucker for my Baby girl who is officially 6 years old today!
