Hey man,

Well I won't be going but I've got some friends headed over tomorrow to hit up the Ratpac and so I thought I'd post up and get the scoop. How's conditions? Weather? Gate?

Wish I could get out, but I finally get visited by the tooth fairy tomorrow. Well not really but my mom is coming to Washington, Waaaaaaaahoooo, never thought when I was a kid I'd be so excited, but being so far away from fam. puts a damper on everything else...

Just heard from him. They had about a 1/4 inch of rain yesterday and nothing today. Fast and hardpacked. Will have about 28 riders hitting it about 1:30 tomorrow. Craaaazy fun! Don't know about the gate. Don't really care either.
I'm a peddler.

Post ride grub and brews at the Pioneer in Roslyn. Maybe we'll see ya.

I wish, both the ride and beers, but I'll be here cleaning the house and taking an online test, gots my mom's rollin' into town. :thumb:

Have fun though, I'll pass on the word.

Josh, You missed a nice little ride up and over Cle Elum ridge. I think there were about 32 riders including maybe six women, so that in itself made it a special ride. Borneo was the sweeper on the ride staying with the slower riders. There were also a couple of guys who really like their mountain biking-Armando and Igor. We stopped at the mid point at a large rock and Armando and Igor put on a display of their all around riding skills. There was also one woman who tackled the rock. Josh-hope your feeling better-I know what you mean about cleaning house-I had to head back early for household stuff.

Borneo-Hope you made it back ok. With that many riders it multiplies the problems than can happen. I learned a new loop- nice. I chased Armando and Jason back up the hill- didnt catch Jason until the top. I decided to call it a day from there and rode back home. We still have a few more weeks of biking left around here-hopefully get in another few rides.

No problem. We had a total of 35 riders!!!!
It's about time you rode River Ridge. There's more good stuff farther upstream near Dingbat and Sandstone Creek drainages.
Great day!

A few of us went on Saturday, and my husband also went Sunday with a group of guys. The trails were in prime condition! We had alot of fun on our XC bikes! Good times! :love:
