David B - I and my stoker (a mere slip of a female) will be leading the long ride from the posted place at the posted time. The weather is never a problem if you really want to ride. We'll miss you. If she's cute, send your trainer over to ride with us.
Yes it';s tradition-and it will feel good when we stop, kinda like sticking yourself in the head with a fork!! And I "Garontee" in a short time we'll think it's too hot!! Join us all!
