Okay, people who is in the for the 12th? Lets have a body count!
I'm in, so that's one.
It looks like the weather is going to be sunny with a high of only 41, so it might be a bit chilly......but who cares :D

The times for these are usually set by BigMike or SK6, but as it stands I don't care what time it starts or what time we meet. But I think the earlier the better especially if it is going to be cold. If we start at an earlier time then what you can make it, we can keep in touch and meet up with you.

1:30 sounds good to me! I have a gig I need to play at Sunday morning at a church, so, 1:30 is the earliest I could make it.

Bigmike is outta town for the weekend, but Dart may be in!

Sounds good to me, I will see you Sunday at 130 then. Hey SK6, what are the chances of getting Denjen and G-spot on that Urban?
I spoke with Denjen Yesterday and he has to play it by ear since his wife is out of town. But he definitely wants to ride.

The weather is going to get real interesting though. well keep an eye out...

It sounds real good to me. 1:30 sounds good to. Will have to play it by ear. My wife is in Rodchester NY and has to drive back. Depends on when she gets back and how she feels if I can make it.
I really want to play on the shiver and see how that feels. I am going to send my rear shock to get it pushed next week. Hoping to have a completely different feeling bike for the season.

Wood-dog how is your shiver feeling did you get a chance to play around with the springs.

If he has never skied before he is going to get owned by snowshoe. I started out at wintergreen and that wasnt to bad. I remember my first time at snowshoe looking down the slope thinking that I am going to die. Take him straight to cupp run and leave him, sink or swim:blah:

Funny thing is that actually happened to me. My little bother took me skiing for the first time, took me through the rental line and got me the longest, fastest skies they had. I didnt know any better so I just took them. Got onto the slope and went straight to the intermidiate slopes, no warm up on the buny hill at all. My brother stayed with me for about 2 minutes got bored and took off. After falling about 1000 times I hiked back to the bunny hill and fell again getting on the lift. Went back to the rental place to turn my stuff in and explained the situation. They gave me shorter skies and told me not to get off the bunny slope for the day. Ended up haveing a pretty good time

Crap! Dart and BigMike are out for this weekend! Well I guess it is up to Ralphie to show the rest of us a good time and I am sure he won't let us down. Will ya Ralphie?
And to Denjen, I got the springs in Monday so I haven't really had the chance to push them yet but so far they feel a bit more plush. I will find out how they will do on bigger drops later today at the UVa drop.

It's a harsh landing

C-ville is expecting 3-5 inches of snow according to the weather channel, with snow still accumulating untill the a.m. hours of Sunday. So if this is the case, I most likely will not see you guys for the ride this weekend. CRAP!:angry:

actually I may still be in if the ride is going to go through. My wife needs to study this weekend and I am going to need an excuse to get of the house so she can study without me pestering her evey 20 minutes or so. So, lets hope that we do not get that much snow for the safety of our friend who will be driving 60 miles just to ride!

As it stands right now, I 'm out! The roads here in C-ville are becoming slick and we are still expecting perception untill the a.m hours. So if you guys decide to go through with it have a good time and be careful!
