Last year we got lucky here and it was acceptable weather for a ride, years previous we have seen rain (snow at higher altitudes), sunshine, wide variety. Snowshoes are easier to transport (for those who may fly) and snowshoing while it is snowing beats riding in the rain. Are there any mountains nearby that have guarenteed snow? <BR/><BR/>I just looked at your altitude... :( 800 feet, probably not too likely to have much snow.<BR/><BR/>Maybe you all want biking just so you can see me in my bike shorts :).Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09416606644239685624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8837688.post-1125011183644124452005-08-25T16:06:00.000-07:002005-08-25T16:06:00.000-07:00check out our coworkers cat, bailey in the sink. ...check out our coworkers cat, <A HREF="http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/1729/bailey3zg.jpg" REL="nofollow">bailey in the sink.</A> disturbing.forkevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07612851807551897769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8837688.post-1125010975707447312005-08-25T16:02:00.000-07:002005-08-25T16:02:00.000-07:00that bath is our half bath off the garage. i'm no...that bath is our half bath off the garage. i'm not sure what day we'll do the death ride. i'll try to be on the lookout for mountain bikes at the garage sales and see if i can add some to my collection of 1 bikes.<BR/><BR/>i would imagine alodia and i would take wednesday off so as to accomodate all the early arrivers (or maybe just one of us, like me) we'll see what she says.forkevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07612851807551897769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8837688.post-1124986516927499592005-08-25T09:15:00.000-07:002005-08-25T09:15:00.000-07:00spokane it is. its like SPOiled citizen KANE What ...spokane it is. its like <B>SPO</B>iled citizen <B>KANE</B> What days were you guys thinking of doing the death march with a road bike? and that last pic of norman.. wow.
