Came up with this ride idea while munching at Wahoo's today. Jose, Justin, Adam, and I will be there. Probably go to old camp and down the luge, but plans can change. I figure 9pm would be a good start time.

Good chance for the 24hr ppl to get some night riding in and work out the kinks in their lights.

You down?

Von-Skipp · 05-20-2006, 04:29 PM

If I get my lights from the BikeCo by then Ill join. I know DINO and Craig wanted to night ride. Dis will be my first night ride.

CalEpic · 05-20-2006, 05:37 PM

I'm in.

Got to check out my new Niterider Flight system.

9:00 pm start puts the end way past my bed time but I'll try to fight off the sleepies.

Pain Freak · 05-20-2006, 06:50 PM

9 pm, That's a late start. I bet you'll have the place to yourselfs.

dstepper · 05-20-2006, 07:13 PM

I don't think my lights will last that long, I am only getting a good 1:30hr, maybe 1:45hr runtime out of them.

There is no moon light on the 24th so you can't squeaze more time by turning them off...it will be black out there.

D- Are you sure that's not enough time to do this loop? You could turn them off for the road portion at least.

Maybe you guys could hammer that out in that time. It takes me 45 minutes to get to the Luge.

05-20-2006, 10:47 PM

Im down for this, not sure bout going all the way to Old Camp though eh. I'll probaby just go to the Luge.

JamR · 05-22-2006, 06:40 AM

My Bad.............I'll have to skip this one.

I forgot about the next public meeting for the Aliso-Woods RMP that takes place the same evening.

See you all on the next one.

royta · 05-22-2006, 06:48 AM

Sounds fun. I'll try to swing this one, unless I'm too rashy. I'm already getting the itchies on my lower back, right along my belt line.

klutter · 05-22-2006, 07:24 AM

I assume we'll be meeting at Cook's.....right?

05-22-2006, 10:39 AM

I'm pretty sure that is where we will meet, I may try to get there around 730ish and leave around 8.

CalEpic · 05-22-2006, 11:03 AM

I think I'm with you Dino. 9:00 pm is a pretty late start for me.

LBmtb · 05-22-2006, 11:14 AM

If 7:30 sounds better for more people I could do that too. Who's down for 7:30 vs. 9?

yeah!! 7:30 sounds better

Andrew · 05-22-2006, 02:43 PM

I'm gonna make it for this one! I got a new light system recently; STT seems like a great place to test it out.

Ladd Jasper · 05-22-2006, 04:41 PM

O.K., now the Stumpy should be good to go. I've got a borrowed light set that I'm charging now, but have no idea what it's duration might be. Should make it interesting.

klutter · 05-22-2006, 05:08 PM

7:30 will work for me

TURNERob · 05-22-2006, 08:17 PM

I'm gonna try and make the 7:30 start time.....gotta test out my light to make sure its good to go for the 24hr race.

dukethenuke · 05-22-2006, 10:00 PM

7:30 is probably the worst time to start, because it's dusk. Dusk and lights don't make a good combination. An 8:00 start time would ensure it's dark by the time we get to the Luge, making it easier to see because of the clear contrast between the lighted areas and dark areas. My 2 cents

.

If my back is feeling better I'm going to join.
