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.

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
