I dunno about what time... but I vote we just meet on the first Tinkham Rd. exit (first one while heading east on I-90).

I have a feeling it's gonna be dark. It still might be fun, and I'm still available.

Well, if that JRuz guy is going then count me out. His "sandbag lockers" make a mockery of all things sacred in four-wheeling...

But seriously, I am up for 7ish at the air down spot on Tinkham...

Ha.

Do you know how many times you mentioned your front/rear lockers on Saturday? I don't know either...lost count around 10...

(did you notice how I've been signing up for runs and saying I have a "rear locker")

7PM is Ok by me...

Mabye I missed it but has a day been chosen yet (that is if it's happening this week...)? I can make tomorrow or Thursday, but I'm headed to Ocean Shores for the weekend Friday afternoon.

I had been sick for two days and had the worst case of heat exhaustion... it took me until today to feel normal, so

Yes, I have seen that... it seems to work for you...

Shane, I think the target day was Thursday.

Perfect, that gives me just enough time to get my rear locker wired up.

How far out is this? Any idea of an exit number or a guess at the time/distance from say, the Snoqualmie Road/Exit #25? I have to judge my time to get out there.

Somehow deleted myself from this link, so I missed a few posts!

Anyways, sounds like 7:00 PM, exit 42 (Tinkham Rd.), Thursday (June 12th) is the plan. We can talk then about interest in making it into a regular thing. Sound good?

Damn! Sorry guys, I won't be able to make it tonight. I'm still recovering from the 101 class last Saturday. But I do plan on making it every chance I get - so if you plan on doing it again next Thursday, count me in!

Gene- sorry to hear you won't make it, but this might be a fun thing to do once a week, especially if some beer and pizza wrap up the evening every once in a while
