I'm riding Saturday to Dville and maybe beyond if anyone wants to join me. Starbucks at 9:30.

When you are in D'ville can you see if the gas station is open?   On the June 4 dirt ride we will need to refuel their.

Have a great ride!

Usually you can use the credit card on the pump whether they are open or not. I sure hope so because my bike is a thirsty bitch. I'll post back though. Great dirt riding there. Love that chimney rock trail.

Uggg, that extreme wide angle makes me sick looking at it! It's not as bad as I looks there, but second divide trail is very exciting. Tech single track with a cliff on one side. Pucker factor is an issue! Love it but it's not for the fain of heart.

I'm having technical issues with the bike. I might have to cancel tomorrow.. I won't know for a couple more hours.

I'm cancelling. Got a check engine light on and she's not running right. Bummed!

Time to ask the BMW forum gurus what's up.

As for me, I rather liked the idea of D-ville.  Was thinking of checking out Gold Lake Falls, if it's possible to hike there in leathers.   ;D

Maybe she's telling you she wants to be ridden more!

Looks like some serious consequences if you slip up but there are also some beautiful views if you get a chance to look up or stop and take them in. I'd be definitely be interested in checking that trail out, just got to take it nice and easy.
