In that original thread (damn that was fun!) you mentioned that you had a new trail that you were gonna explore. Anything new on that??

I'm guessing there are a couple others that could give it a good effort...
If we wanted to get all nostalgic I could come out in the red truck like I did last year on my very first run ever with you guys. I'm getting all misty just thinking about it.

Now you're gonna make me cry. If Shannon bring cookies again I'm in for this. If we can confirm Wednesday's I can schedule myself off in time. It's a haul for me from Everett that time of day so I need to leave a bit earlier.

I'm confirming May 11th, 6:30-6:45 as the meeting time.
I'd like to stick to Tinkham for this first ride out, I really want to see how nasty that climb is, but will bow to the masses if necessary....

Okay, can we get a final roll call on this trip? At the moment, I'm only aware of myself and Mike that are going to be able to make, and it might make more sense to just cancel it due to such small turnout.
