    How about some riding this weekend?

    I am sure we could get away with a mellow Canyon ride this weekend.

    Is anyone planning on riding? I would love to get out for a longer ride than my commutes... What say you?

    We could meet where convenient...

    Diego.

    *****EDIT*****

    For everyone that wants to join us at Golden or Boulder here is what is going on:

    Jay and I are going to leave from the 7/11, Intersection of Washington St. and Hwy 93 in Golden, at about 9:15 AM on Sunday. We will then meet everyone else in Boulder, at the Amante Cafe up on Broadway in N Boulder; the idea is to leave the Café at about 10 AM.

    Come to either of these spots and we should be good to go!

    Sunday would be better for me too.

The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

    Sunday it is!

    As far as roads go, HWY 7 & 36 are typically cleaner than other roads around that area. So maybe staying North and hitting those roads there would work better. I am open to any route though.

    By the way, I will probably ride Sat. too, so if anyone else feels like riding then, post it up! Maybe bear creek to Deckers? Anyone got a road report around that area?

    Everyone want to meet at Amante Cafe up on Broadway in N Boulder? And us southies can meet up down this way and ride up together to Boulder?

    What's a good time for everyone to leave Boulder at?

    Yep, just go North on Washington and you will run into Hwy 93, and the 7/11 on the NE side of the intersection. Or I would just do hwy 6 W or C470, to 93 N, to the intersection with Washington (downtown Golden and Washington st. are a mess with all the construction there).

    Bitch, moan, bitch, moan.....jeesh, what, are we dating? If you want, I'll ride your new sexy bike and you can ride in back?

    I've got a tire, I just have to wait for my rear spools to come in, so I can prop it up and take off the back tire to go get it changed. I'll have to jump on the next ride.
