Happy birthday. I have been toying with the idea of joining this ride, but it is pretty wet out here. Plus I am playing hockey at noon, so I might be feeling a bit lazy afterwards.
aside from the slippery rocks, which i actually found to be fun, the trails were damned near puuuurrrrrrfect. very firm, no dust, excellent traction(on everything but the rocks ). the group was happy birthday ellen, art, laura, dar(lene), marianne, and myself. great time. i was thrilled to see how well the trails held up to all the moisture we've had the past few days.
I really was trying to get up there. Sean called me and got me out of bed, but i had to run to the shop to get my bike ready...there was just not enough time. Next time. Hope the day was well pixy!
