Looks like a quick storm shower might roll through around meetup time but it should be clear the rest of the evening.


6pm is tough. Where you guys heading.
Ted, you were the one that suggested St. Boni with a 6:00pm start.

Shall we shoot to roll at 6:15? Gives me a little more breathing room, too.


6:15 it is.

2fast4love and I rode out to Mayer the saturday before last, but there is really no good route back to Carver Park past St. Boni. We ended up backtracking from Mayer so we could ride 7 back to co. road 11 and take the carver park trail system back to the SWLRT.

We should stop in Victoria for beers, food in any case.

I am pretty bummed to be missing this.

I would love a loop of this nature in the coming weeks (Leave a little early, do a longer loop and stop for a late dinner after or midway). Have fun!

Fun ride. It was nice to get a few sprints in.

Any interest tonight? Might ride dirt if no one's coming out. Definitely heading over to St. Paul next week.

We usually roll out at 7pm, just went earlier two weeks ago to try and cover more ground.
If everyone's ok with it, we can swing the start time around an hour like that, but I'd like to get out to Mounds tonight and try to make it back near sundown.

I should be able to swing 7pm. Still stevens?

I am 80% sure I'm in. Sounds like Alex is in for sure.

Awesome! And yes.

Here's what I'm thinking for a route. Up for any changes you guys want, I'd just like to ride up into Mounds and be able to bomb down Kellogg. We can reevaluate Ramsey once we get there.
