Santa Rosa Plateau 5:30pm

[Docklobster]

Meet across from the visitor center - head out for about a 1hr 30min ride...

I'd definitely be in for this if we weren't gonna be out running errands at the time.

It's always nice riding out there in the evenings!!

That's sounds fun, but my cat is getting a hairball treatment that day and I need to hold him tight at that time. (it's just as good as thier excuses)

[JOx2]

its been almost 2 weeks since the last time my bike tasted the dirt, family visitors kept me busy. but now they're gone i can ride now. this should be a relaxing going-back-to-the-trails ride.

so what time Docklobster?

[Taco Jack]

I don't have any excuses so I'll be there.

[S Works]

My rig in in the shop and I still have 2 broken ribs. But I must watch the lakers get killed. I think I need 1 more week of down time so next week???

Easy ride - moderate pace - start riding ~5:30pm Depending on who shows we may add on the hill up to the ridge and down the new manzanita single track. We will regroup as needed at each branch in the trail.

How about slaughter house to finish off the ride?

Slaughterhouse is an awesome trail! The only thing about parking at the visitor center and then riding the Plateau/Slaughterhouse is that you have to either ride back up Slaughterhouse or up Clinton Keith to get to the cars. The times that I've done Slaughterhouse, I've parked in the dirt lot next to the fire station and rode up Slaughterhouse, did the plateau and then back down Slaughterhouse.

On a side note, there is a metric butt ton of poison oak all along the Slaughterhouse trail.

Good thing I am riding home, no car today so no heading back uphill....I'll have to do that on the way there

[lukewiens]

good riding with you guys....although it was brief!

hope joe is ok!

[Docklobster]

Thanks Luke and Jack for showing and your help yesterday. JoJo sorry we didn't see you hope you got a ride in.

Took Joe to the ER for a Catscan - he is doing better today, nothing broken, just a massive headache from the concussion Thanks again..

We can try for the full loop next time out. This is why it is good to ride with someone even on the easy rides and always wear a helmet!!

I'm sorry to hear that someone got hurt ... STR member?

[lukewiens]

good to hear he is doing ok! he has got some pretty cool road rash to show off to his co-workers this week though!

yeah...that is the nature of this business unfortunately. i told him the next time he has a big crash, to tell someone to head up the trail to get it all on video....sound familiar!
