I want a piece of that action. What time is Sun set these days??
90% in. Only thing that will stop me is if I get called in to work or continue breaking bikes.

We'll be back by sunset, which is at 6:15. That gives us 4.25hrs to do the ride, more than enough time.

We may get there a little before 2, or a little after. We're coming from Aiken and will need to grab a bite to eat on the way. I'll send you a text when I've got a good ETA.

Will the Cannondale be back by then, or will you be rocking the ProFlex?

[Ted S.]

Proflex baby!! Toe clips and straps with sneakers.

I rode it yesterday up big rock and tower and some climbing on duck pond.

It's a much more aggressively laid out Cross country racer style. way more responsive steering and climbs really well, although with zero rebound control or damping got a little bouncy on the gravel rd climb, had to concentrate on staying smoooooooth.
The ride is harsh 1.5 inches travel doesn't really do much. going down hill is a little scary with all my weight way out over the front.And the Girvin fork has bent linkage and doesn't really move at all,unless it takes a big hit.
And the braking just sucks. Been spoiled by disc brakes.
Surprisingly the two bikes weigh about the same.

Nice to see the events page up, we should try to get the Baker's dozen registration up and going and I will start send links,invites and postings to everyone I can.

She said "please take me to the Christmas Party ride"

I can't wait to see that thing in person on Friday.
