    Maybe the FS is right. If people can't follow instructions on how to get in on this ride, then maybe they can't be trusted to follow the rules on the trail. :?: #-o ](*,) ;)

    Once again......read the rules:

    The only way to reserve a spot is to RSVP here when the function goes active. I will activate the RSVP function as soon as I get the OK to do so.

    Yep, #4 pretty much cuts me out ;)

    Hey, if my bike is clean, but the tires are dirty, can I still ride?

    And, put me down on the RSVP :lol: j/k, I think I counted 17 instances where the "rules" had to be pointed out--aside from the top flyer that's on each top page

    Should we start taking bets on how many people are going to show up tomorrow morning and not be allowed in?

    Along with rule #4 the FS should prohibit the birds from pooping because they are a major spreader of seeds.;)

    I will start to take RSVP's in about 30 min. Once you RSVP, do not change or add a reply in the comment box because it automatically drops you to the bottom of the list. I will PM those that are in and you will received ride info and confirmation from me. Once I sort out the amount of space left I will go down the list and PM that person and so forth until all spots are taken.

    I chose this method of RSVP instead of giving out my email address because I didn't feel like going through 50-60 emails tonight. Thanks for your patience.

    To clarify rule #2

    2. Only those who RSVP will be allowed on the ride. You cannot RSVP for
    friends.

    You cannot say: me + 3 others, those 3 others will not be allowed.

    You can always park in the lot up at the end, leave your H2O there, ride down to Blackstar, and you'll just have to ride out a bit to get the H2O :)
