Not gonna make it guys, sorry. I just got in from a wedding, I don't think there's much chance that I'll be up in time to get all my crap together and make the meet up time. I'm gonna try to get a ride in at Nass instead...

Oof. Temps in teh 40's and rainy. Sounds like miserable conditions for a ride. Don't get hypothermic!

Yeah, I'm still sitting at home in the relative warmth (still no heat on). Thinking of going out for a ride in a bit, but it's hard to get motivated. ;) Aside from the cold I'm sick of riding in the rain...

I know I couldn't get motivated. Being at a wedding consuming mass quantities of alcohol until after midnight last night didn't help either... ;)

One thing about riding today, is being below 50 degrees and wet, hypothermia is a real concern unless you're prepared for it. I wouldn't want to have a cotton shirt on today and then have an extended mechanical or get injured. Shiver....

I see you have been busy this morning, thanks for the trackers.

I actually did that yesterday before I left for the wedding. They're still a bit of a work in progress, but you're welcome anyway.

Hopefully no mechanical nor injury though. Synthetic is the way to go!
