Was hot here yesterday, too.

Have fun, Nate! Sorry I'm not in the state to meet up again - that was fun. 


ION:  The work computer is shut down and I'm not going to log in until Sunday eve (maybe).     

Took Oliver for another e-bike ride last night with him in the good sized basket on the rear rack.  Two runs around the block - one more than the first night. Soon after, he threw up. Not unusual these days but will be bummed if the ride made him nauseous.  Kind of defeats the purpose of getting it and tricking it out just for him.  :P

Grattan is a small township in western Michigan, near Grand Rapids, and is the location of a racetrack a group of us have been going to for a long time. I started going in 2001.

We camp at the track, have catered meals, and it as much a social event as it is about the riding. It's different than most track days. there are no groups. The fast guys and the slow guys work it out. Everyone is pretty much civil in their behavior on track. The exceptions don't get asked back. You get as much track time as you can stand and by the end of the three days you're spent.

The only bad part about it is the ride. It's 1K miles from here. Another DMF'er is attending this year. I'll leave it up to them to tell you if they want.

Wishing all a good week and a fast one (around the track) for Nate.

Later.

Having fun. I need a new bike. The old girl is getting temperamental. Afternoon BTW.
