Id be keen. Either works, but early start preferable so I can get back to town for afternoon with my Mother in law... :D

Hi Fozzy,

I'm not sure I have another Leechtown in me after nursing Rolf back after he bonked last winter. Seems he thought he could get there and back on one veggie stick and a Tic Tac.

What was your thinking with respect to the Great Trail? (I've been wondering about those trails to the west off of Trail Way. It looks like there's a counterclockwise loop back to the Sooke Hills Wilderness Trial. That could be fun, or it could be torture. Maybe Garth or someone else has some intel.)

Hey Fozzy, approximately at what time of the day do you envisage being back in Victoria. I have some family commitments this weekend, but may able to sneak out with you guys on the Leechtown ride, depending on the hours we will be on the trail. I hope this makes sense.

Hi Neil,

Im going to bail. I have to be back early and so will do something long and hilly so I can get back by 9.

Have a great ride.

Next time:)

Hi Craig.
No worries. There will be another ride for sure.

Hi Steven.
We don't necessarily have to go all the way to Leechtown, but I envisage it being a good 5 hours ride.

Fozzy, I'll get back to you and let you know. Like Craig, I may be looking at a short time window for a ride tomorrow.
