Right now I'm leaning toward riding and not going to the slope race. It is suppose to be cooler this Saturday than last Saturday. Being the old guy that doesn't do as well with cool temperatures can we start at 9:00 instead of 8:00? :wiley: We can just take less stops and make them shorter and end up finishing at the same time if not sooner.

Matt, did they fix the creak in your head tube?

We can do stuff other than Connector + FDLT though. I just want to get in some good riding and decent distance. I really don't want to climb Fuel Break again this week though
. I do think it would be a good idea to cool off at the confluence post-ride though...

We could always do Connector + FDLT + Confluence/Clementine. That ends with a crappy hill, but will give us a nice 25 miles or so.

Well, that sucks - Lance has been itching to do Olmstead.

I hear you on the parking, but ending with that climb sucks *** :\. If we start early enough parking shouldn't be much of an issue, and worst case we could always park at Western States parking lot.

I like this loop, but would prefer to start at confluence so we end with the descent I hear you on the parking, but ending with that climb sucks *** :\. If we start early enough parking shouldn't be much of an issue, and worst case we could always park at Western States parking lot.

If it's Saturday, I'll cancel my dinner plans since there's no point in going out to a nice dinner and not being able to drink.
