Lo siento mucho, can't ride tomorrow. I'm free Tues and Wed for the snow, and on Thursday I have childcare duty.

I'm game for a Sunday ride. Maybe 3 hours or so then back to work. :frustrated: It always comes when I don't want it :dirtdog: . Better than starving I guess.

Rearden Steel and others interested... Maybe meet at 10:30 somewhere between Boonsboro and Brunswick? Mike may drop a tag so he may have a destination in mind...

Bucho are you down?! We need a designated jumper! :whoop: :jack: Your a hooligan my friend :thumbup: :ride:

How about we go investigate the conditions at Greenridge? 10:30 at Sheetz on the corner of 40 and 66...... 20723 National Pike

I guess everyone else got ointment to stop the itching.... :shrug: :shrug:
Kenny and I got a few hrs in, ended up buzzing about in Blairs Valley/Indian Springs area.... the dirt roads were pure ice, and the less traveled tar and chip rds were pretty much gravel rds. :roost: :roost: :roost: Did find one nice rd that was unmarked that I couldn't determine if it was gravel or paved :ride: (maybe it used to be paved) Was a balmy 26 in downtown Mercersburg, and with the sun shining it felt even warmer. We made our way back home over the good humpy stuff to get home :whoop: It was a good day indeed, now if I didn't now have to go to work tonight :fitz:

It is true -- when the thermometer doesn't get out of the 20's, :screwy: that is fairly effective ointment.

You know how you're always reading advice "not to ride outside your abilities." Today was outside my abilities. :dry: I admire the hell out of you guys for being able to not kill yourselves on those icy roads and trails.
