Some Like It Wet

Remember how we had to ski just ot get out of the Knot Lot last week?

And we laughed at the rain, because after you've rolled around in soggy snow a few times, who cares about rain?
What a difference a week makes. The snow is gone. In its place will be puddles and wet soil, if not little streams running down the trails. Once again, the forecast promises cold, heavy rain. Of course, conditions are usually much better during ride time than what's forecasted.

But if you like conditions as sloppy as an over-sauced, blown out taco that was made with meat from the bottom of the pot, then don't miss this Tuesday.

    2. You're not fooling anyone Buttons. We know you don't like tacos.

  3. In. Fitting an umbrella to the bike might be the way to go. I may skip tacos unless I can get a ride with someone who is staying for tacos. Are the above posters in?

  6. Luckily it's warming up as we speak and should be a balmy 42 degrees at ride time. I'm definitely getting a couple plastic bags for my feet. Anyone able to provide an easy up to drink beer under?

    1. I'll bring one. I think last week someone asked if it was easy to setup?

  8. I've been anxious to get back in the saddle, but I'm pulling out, no loose slop for me. I'm going to hang out with Peter at the Mensa meeting.

    Ride on hard men. Keep the rubber side down, if you can tell where it is.

  9. State of emergency declared in El Dorado County and City of Placerville. I feel like we should be filling sandbags or something.

    1. Like Peter, I'm always equipped with a pre-ride sand bag. :-0
