Heya DeeZee... I've never done San Juan before and I'm very interested in joining you. I'm trying to get a feel for how long of a ride this will be and I'm looking at Geoladders. I see several routes... none mention C-Rock. Can you link me the route on Geoladders and where you guys are meeting up? Thanks...

Jeremy

Yea, but the Lenz was folded buy a guy that is stronger then most. That would have been my second choice if I hadn't gotten the RIP9.

If anyone wants to do this in the morning, same day 4-02-08, PM me. All the way to Blue Jay would be nice too. Preferably a mellow pace, I'm still sore from a crash on Saturday.
