Does anybody ever make it up this way? It's one of my favorite loops in the area. I'm about 60 mi. east of Carson City. I usually Get something to eat in Virginia City. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=N V-207+W%2FKingsbury+Grade+Rd&daddr=Lake+Tahoe+Blvd +to:39.101292,-120.161591+to:NV-431+E%2FMt+Rose+Hw y+to:NV-341+E%2FC+St+to:NV-341+E%2FOccidental+Grde +to:NV-341+E&geocode=FVoBUgIdeF7b-A%3BFfBCUgIdBl7Z -A%3B%3BFS7MWAIdMlnb-A%3BFRrmVwId2FDe-A%3BFU1aVwId Ypze-A%3BFRZ4VgIdylTe-A&hl=en&mra=dpe&mrcr=1&mrsp= 2&sz=10&via=2,3,5&sll=39.052252,-119.944611&sspn=0 .487368,0.828094&ie=UTF8&ll=39.177982,-119.84848&s pn=0.486499,0.828094&t=h&z=10 |

Jbolt, I ride those roads all the time. But there are too many cars on those roads. |

I missed you all. I got to the Deli in Markleeville at noon and stayed for an hour. Maybe next time things will work out better. |

Badrap-Man, we would have been there. But I and 2008xb hit a boulder in the road that left three bent rims and two flat tire's and one beat up Drummer. Half the group kept the Ride alive and ate at the deli. I just don't know what time they were there. We will do this again real soon. Aaron |

Must have just missed you Badrap. We rolled in to the deli about 1:20. Aaron, the passes were fun. Good group of guys to ride with although Will and Pat are definitely faster than me. Met Bob and Vic, who I guess you know, at the deli and rode back across 4 with them. Really sorry about your misfortune but glad you guys made it back safely and hope to ride with you soon. |

Shifty-That's why I like to Ride with those guy's, good people and they like to kick it up a bit. Yes, I do know Vic and Bob. I Ride with a bunch of old fart's...But it's FUN. Wheels are going to the Frame Man today and hopefully both can be fixed?!!! See you on the next one. |

Glad it all went well. Did someone say dinner? Yep, I mentioned to my wife you had asked what peruvian food was like and she made me promise I'd invite you guys for dinner one night. Besides it's the least I could do after you guys made sure I was on the road again. |
