What time are you guys thinking? The earlier the better for me.
I've been down and out with five days of fever and flu and it would be great to have an easygoing ride to aim for over the weekend as my health improves.

I'm assuming that was a typo, but were you trying to say "longer version" or "Logger Version", because if it is the latter, you sir have peaked my curiosity.
Regular sunday ride sounds great to me, Fairfield Buckys @ 7:30.

Ya, about that Jeremy. What was it you said? Something like: This is the only day I'm able to get out until 2012, anyone interested??
We had a chat and decided today's no-show would cost you half of those winter gloating points.

Oh, for shame Tripleshot!!
Most other clubs had representation today, with TS being the big exception! TT haters like Alex and Megan even gave it a go.
But likely thanks in part to your neglect, OA scored another victory for the year.
