    Don't think I want to repeat my last year's stupid idea of riding as many loops as possible but will definitely put in a few laps and bring a few beers!

    I'll be there. 14 laps last year and I fell asleep again due to food coma #-oWho's going to help keep motivated in the wee hours so I don't stop like I did last year after 10 laps around 1am and only got in 4 more after that? ](*,)

    Who knows how many I'll do, but it'll have to be a lot if I want to defend my title as KING of the Fully Loop. :wave: The record I believe is 18 laps. I know some guy are going after it! 8-[

    I think I'll head out with the kid - anyone wanna wager on how many times I'll be 'lapped'?

    We'll be stuck in some extra credit areas for a little extra time for sure....

    So this is the 11mile loop, i am assuming? And I understand on keeping it on the low low. Might try to make it out if I can get out of work, or drop in on Sat as a few others were talknig about.

    I'm just hoping to not crash out due to the extreme boredom of multiple Fully laps.
