I'm hoping we get lucky and the winds cooperate with us.

All things considered, we will be lucky to have decent air quality. That's just my opinion, but it usually takes a day or two to clear out and the fire isn't even out yet.

I'm thinking we really won't know for sure until Saturday morning at the trailhead.

Keep breathing Justin. I'll be there! Well,...that is if I don't go out tonight and get schnockered....


Could you ask Allison not to pass me going down Pinball? it is tough on a guy's ego when a girl who has been riding only a couple of years shows me up on all the technical sections!!

I think that was my first time on the Enduro... Dude, I figured you'd fly down way faster than me and you just held me up

Just make sure you know the pecking order and ride behind me this time, eh!!



Looking forward to riding with you, bud!

Unhappy Candace and I are out...

We rode last night on a new trail. We were coming down towards the parking lot playing on a bunch of jumps we saw on the way up and Candace took a nasty digger. I was behind her and didn't get to see it. The jump had a big lip and she couldn't see it dropped off on the other side. Anyway, she broke her collarbone in 2 places and might have to get some nuts (no dirty thoughts) and bolts put in her. We look forward to riding and meeting you all soon. If you do any rides near Riverside, I would love to come. Later on


Andy

Andy, that's horrible news! Where were you riding?

Please give Candace my best thoughts. I broke mine a few years back and the pain the first week or so is pretty bad. As it starts to heal it gets to be less painful. The good side is that when you get some metal in there it holds everything in place better and it usually will heal better and be better aligned.

Heal fast and well.

Everyone is meeting at a park and ride off 5. Junipero Serra? or something.




BTW everyone - Aqua is disbelieving that we will be OFF by 8 am! Let's prove the local wrong



Anyone that isn't rolling at 8 am buys beer for everyone that is!

::looks around:: unless it's me.

Not sure who all is driving down there but I am planning on meeting OMR at the P&R off of Junipero Serra.


From OMR post: Head south on the 5 past Avery Parkway to Junipero Serra. Take the off ramp and turn left at the bottom... go under the 5 and the carpool parking lot will be on your right hand side. Try and meet there a little before 6 am as the ride down to Noble takes approx 1 1/2 hrs.
