Thanks guys. Mike and Lance, I'm glad you had a good time. Maybe next weekend we will have the opportunity to ride together again.
I am beginning to think riding with FATRAC for us is jinxed. First Matt and then me the next weekend. I recover and get in a bunch of rides without so much as a bobble. So I go ride with FATRAC and WHAM, out again.
In all fairness it was totally my fault. The FATRAC guys and (cute) girl were really caring and kind. Part of the thing that's so madding is that they are fun to ride with and I keep having stupid crashes in front of them. It's very embarrassing and frustrating.

More stuff.....
I forgot to mention that at the beginning of the ride one of them asked "Don't you ride with Matt?" I said "I was." Matt, he had seen your pictures on MTBR. You have his condolences also. Now if only I remembered his name.
My wife and I are heading Tahoe Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Anytime after that, I'm ready to ride. Weekday or weekend.

I might can ride Saturday if it's not a super bumpy ride. I don't think I can go real long yet either. I'm not fully healed yet.
So if you don't mind someone riding like a wimp with you, I'm ok for Saturday. What did you guys have in mind?

As usual, I'll ride just about anything.
I was going to ride GB after work today, but I just could not get motivated. Hopefully this weekend will get me back into the swing of things.

Can you guys ride Sunday morning? Or is Saturday the only day that works for you Randy??? I'm flexible but would prefer Sunday.

I think it needs to be something without rocky climbs and decents. That excludes most of Auburn/Foresthill. Olmstead would probably be ok since it's been smoothed out, but a dust bowl. Granite Bay would probably be ok too.
I can only ride Saturday this week.
