Wrapping Up Another Year of Tuesdays



Last week saw another inspired route choice by the Supreme RideLeader. He followed button hook turns with sneaky downhills and visited a rarely used corner of Pollywood. He even managed to drop a rider less than halfway in to the ride.
 Afterwards, we dined on tacos and cheesecake both sprinkled liberally with pickled jalapenos.

The holiday celebration continued with the annual solstice bonfire, where we atoned for missing rides by symbolically throwing Peter onto the flames.
Has anyone else had the unpleasant experience of trying to pick their way through the logging slash on the lake loop near the Jenkinson entrance? I complained to the EID General Manager. He told me that feedback from the public is necessary for them to demand better from their contractors. So, don't hesitate to speak up.

With temps climbing into the upper thirties, the hoar frost should get sucked back into the soil. I'm guessing ride conditions will be damn near perfect.

  1. Noticing that NoCar did not indicate his presence this evening with a count off, I will go ahead and announce myself at #1, top of the podium!! For the record this will be ride #14 for me on the year, a 26.9% attendance rate. A solid effort for one who was blocked for a great deal of Tuesdays this year. It is also notable that the only ride I missed when I had the opportunity to ride due to a poorly scheduled 'coming of age' procedure many of you will also endure. Be glad you were not a celebrity this year! Maybe 2017 will be better!?
