I was thinking about hitting Mueller Park, but screw it. I haven't hit this yet. I'll be there.

[TreeHugger]

Wha-hooo!! I think I might be able to make this one!!!!

[blueeyes]

Ok this will be tough for me to pull off. But if Treehugger is going to be there.. I want to ride with another Bogley Lady. Keeping my fingers crossed I can make it!!

Hey, I'd like to tag along. Are you going to ride the standard loop? What skill level is everyone? I'm sometimes sport and other times expert depending on the day.

We do a loop, not sure if it is full. I think so, past the pond and down kruiser or whatever. We have all diff skill levels. Some eat dust on the uphill and others on the downhill.

Hey, welcome to bogley.

I'd so love to ride with you! I'm hoping I'll be back in the swing of things by then, I'm assuming I will. I threw my back out and am mending - had to cancel our riding trip this weekend so I dont aggravate it more - gotta get good so I can start training for 24 Hours of Moab in earnest. I'm pretty sure I'll be good Tuesday, though. Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!!

PS - I want to see YOUR new bike!!

Hey I hate to bail out on you all, but a last minute event prevents me from doing so, yes an event even more important than riding VERY RARE. I'll catch you all on the next one. Thanks.

With the wetness of the weekend storm, is this ride still on? Does anybody have more info on which parking lot you're meeting at?

from past experience I think the trail will be fine, mountain soil drains quickly, we may have a few puddles and one wet section.

We are meeting at the lower parking area but we may want to park along the road outside the gate, they sometimes lock it up before we are done riding.

I can also meet at the park and ride, at the mouth of the canyon at around 5:30 if anyone is interested in a carpool.

[Sombeech]

Mark and I are in

Is the lower parking area the first parking lot you come to near the Moonbeam Center?
