Going out for a ride after work on Tuesday, Nasahegan is most likely destination.

Anyone want to join me?

I was going to propose an early start if you guys could anyway swing it (a dentist appointment is a good excuse). Something like 4 or 4:30?

Let me know what time you guys decide. If I don't start with you, maybe I'll swing back to Lamson's when you guys get there. I think RAWs are going to be hard for me to pull off come September since I will be working later and it will be getting dark early.

That is going to suck, but then again it is getting dark early so I will probably only be getting an hour or so in during the week.

Realistically 6 works for me unless I can sneak out early, but won't know until I actually do it tomorrow.

hopefully you guys don't get rained out. The forecast I just saw is calling for thunderstorms every evening this week.:cry:

Just a 30% chance, but you're right. This month is shaping to be a lot like June with lots of muddy riding and dodging T-storms. Nass is pretty wet in spots right now.

Coming over?

So you don't want to meet at 5 for a pre-ride?

I wanted to do a 4-ish start time or a 6 start time. That way I could plan for dinner with the fam before or after it. 6 will work.

Looks like a 50% chance of rain showers now, with a chance of thunder showers. As usual, I'm still planning on going unless things look REALLY bad outside.

Likewise. What are we riding?

Hopefully it has some time to dry out there, I had some heavy rain last night and then some more this morning.

We had some heavy rain roll through last night as well. One of the roads that I normally take to work was closed this morning, I'm assuming due to a downed tree that they were trying to clear.

Good point though. I hope it's not too muddy.

I'd like to hit the standard loop, but I'm also up for doing some variation of the ride we did last time. I didn't get to enjoy most of that ride due to my PITA bike.
