well That flip flop left me with out a front brake , sincethe pin on my Brake lecer was now missing. we were trying to make it work with a Wire tie, when Berkshire rider found the pin, we it wouldn't stay in but it fit , so we put a couple of stickers on the brakes and that held the pin in for therest of my ride.

well we got over to Resivour #6 , since this is really all water company property , I was here earlier this year , and this was Full then. here Berkshire rider riding down the rocks into the resvouir.

I am considering going to Sutton tomorrow (too long to explain).

Three questions:

1) The pics look highly technical - is the whole ride like that or is it just the pics?

2) Where do you park?

3) is it hard to route find in there (I don't have a GPS)?

Feel free to PM me if you don't want to post.

2:30 is the plan.

[Jisch]

yeah, with the relative newbie. The whole thing is a bit up in the air at this point. I likely won't have definite details until tomorrow, and I probably can't push it out to 4:00.
