    We had Cruisers on today's ride, and sport bikes usually slowed down after the twist so everyone could catch up. The same will apply to the trip if we have Cruisers.

    My calendar has opened up so I'm now able to go as well... fingers crossed for good weather! I realize I'm late to the party here so if you're worried about too large a crowd I'm ok with bowing out as well.

    I don't know what's wrong with those cruisers, instead of sticking with the group the stare at the nature...

    It is still on the same group, it's just a longer group Big deal, we never in a hurry anyway, and nature is meant for exploring.

    Rain coat works great for the cold weather.

    Damn I may have to take out the water wetter if it is going to get that cold at night... Think they will let me take the bike in to the room to sleep?

    I just finished washing and waxing it for the weekend (directed at TED!). She looks spiffy clean.

    Anyone smokes on this ride? There may not be enough non smoking double beds available.

    Also, for those who prefer to go with 4 people in one room (split 4 ways). let me know as well. Do keep in mind there are only two beds, so some may have to bring sleeping bags (or double up if you don't mind) if you are opt for the 4 occupants. Rates are better this weekend compare to last weekend (Fall rate). If no one says anything, then it will be two people per room for all.

    I need final confirmation on Thursday evening, and I will book the places at night or Friday morning.
