Heck I don't even know that. Leave after breakfast and return before the gymkhana is a safe bet. Now all we need is Tom L. to join in and it'll be an all Stella blocking crew.. |

well then, just say no (to blocking, that is). You'd be needed all the way back into town so I doubt you'd make it back out to Stillwater by then... |

We are going to Marine on St. Croix so you could help on the way out? |

If it comes down to it we *could* do one giant clusterfuck ride. I'll plan one out just in case. |

Activities at SV will be slightly different this year. Although we'll likely have bevies and muchies, we are not doing a BBQ - I'm working on lunch arrangements elsewhere. We'll be getting back to SV later, but not sure what time at this point. |

Of course, the above is dependant on whether or not there's a city ride and country ride. If it's one big ride, this may change, AGAIN.
It's always been really hard to get volunteers for the BBQ though, and so we decided to can it. |

If you skipped the ride you were probably back by 12:30, it didn't leave till 11:30ish, I think we were back around 2? |

well if I could get a rough timeline I prolly could help with the ride. I just don't wanna commit and then back out.

It ain't over til the skinny dude whines. I'm completely on until I'm completely off. Here's a thought. If any of you weenies anticipating doing the city ride have concerns about blocking, email me about your issues so I can allay them. This is going to be a slow, consistent ride with anywhere from 60 to 100 riders and it's mostly a hustle to the front after having blocked. The route is wide-open except for a few, very few, spots. Trust me, I'm no danger-boy, but it sure is fun and folks love to be herded. After the ride, men will bow down before you and women will ask to birth your baby, although this usually involves a zip-loc baggie and porn.
I'll post something akin to this tomorrow on the city ride post.
Ciao. |
