    Looks like we got three so far for a sunday ride.

    Withlast Sundays 120km ride I think everyone got the cobwebs cleared out for the season. Lots of single track, narly climbs, elevated log crossings, sippy holes,sand pitsand even a couple kms of snow...I think everyone got stuck or dropped their bike and/or body at least once. "Romainiacs" look out.

    After seeing 'dragonflys' new pipe/snorkel combinationIput my FMF back on and have to get out for a test ride today, see y'all on Sunday.

    I'd be interested in going to Melrose.

    I can also drive and take a bike or 2 as needed.

    What time are you and your crew thinking of leaving, Steve? 10:30ish?

    Right on...a threesome.

    What happened to dragonfly...the other regular?

    Anyway, have to quickly replace a brake caliper on the truck in the morning...siezed up and got too hot today and melted the seal. So much for leaving early.

    Should be able to meet you guys at Courtenay Motorsports parking lot by 10am with the truck and trailer. Looks like there's another group meeting atMelrosebetween 10 and 11...might be able to link up with them.

    Pack a lunch and ten bucks for gas.

    Is a plate required for this ride? If not, and there's room in the caravan I'm in. I still don't have a spare for my pick-up so I rather not take it.

    Cheers

    Oh, almost forgot...bring some tie-down straps, not sure I have enough for everyone.

    There's room for one more Duane...get on the bus, gus. All off-road trails so you shouldn't need a plate, check out the google map on the Van Isle Chit Chat page.

    That works for me.

    Still meet at Courtenay Motorsport?

    Duane - what's works for you? - I could also pick you up if you have to transport your bike to CM. I'm out by Sunnydale Golf.
