    Boulder Ride - Cancelled

    When: 12:15 PM Wednesday 3/16/11
    Where: Boulder - Iris & 28th Conoco

    Hello old and new peeps. The weather is supposed to be 70+ and sunny on Wednesday (fingers crossed it'll stay that way). Was planning a short trip out of Boulder, up Left Hand and down 7, if anyone would like to join me. Pace will be dependent on who shows up, anyone is welcome to come. I'll be bringing my GoPro to take some pix/vid for fun.

    Cancelled.

    Be careful on Left Hand, fair amount of sand still there as of yesterday.

    hmmm....mehbeh...I'll be riding slow though, and

    did a quick loop up by me and there was a ton of mag chloride on the road still and I could hear the gravel hitting the lowers.

    I'm going to pre-ride it before Monday. But maybe we'll have to switch routes because of that fire? We'll see.

    Did the route today, was fun. Backside of Lee Hill had some sand but you should be going slow there anyway, Left Hand Canyon was clear until near Ward, P2P had some wet spots but overall good, and 7 was great except for sand in the tighter corners. Took an hour total entrance to exit.

    Won't be a fast ride... but the conditions are good enough to make the pace lively. More peeps need to come. Would anyone be down for going Wednesday at 12:15 too?

    Nevermind, made different plans plus nobody wanted to go. I'll stick to weekends until school's out.
