Just ordered a pair of waterproof boots
(my old ones fell apart and my new ones aren't waterproof)
Because it looks like we are going to get soggy Saturday . They better come in Friday like Amazon guaranteed.

Is this ride going to be more relaxed? It sounds like it. I have dirt bike armor that I can wear but it sounds like my normal road gear will be fine for this ride. Road gear or dirt bike armor?

Relaxed overall pace.....some may want to whip-it-up a bit...and that's ok as well.... We can all get along. :respect-048:

Melony and I will just be wearing our normal gear, no dirt-bike armor.

I should be able to swing the milage, but if not, maybe I can bum a gallon and mix it up quick?

I'm going to check on this bridge, on 80, this evening....I don't recall ever riding this :thinking-022:

If anyone knows if it's passable ....let me know.

Based on Google Maps, there is a tree a 100 yards east we can ride across! No Biggie!
