just an FYI - Lulu, I mean Amy, and I will be departing the 101/405 exchange at about 7:30 and will be meeting at the 8:30ish meeting location. I told Amy to bring the lube, as my bag is full of ice...(s)he'll need it.

My bag is packed and strapped on the bike, my gear is all laid out, my alarm clock is set and then the phone rings. They just took my grandma to the emergency room - she can't move her hands and she hit the ground pretty hard. So, depending on how bad it is, I might not be able to make it. If I see you guys, i'll see you; if not have fun and ride safe.

I'm fine.... swollen and bruised knee

the bike is great, other than the right side is rashed up a lil,

no broken parts.

I swung a downhill righthander a lil too upright, drifted out across the yellow, then like a tard, focused on the shoulder of the road, and dumped it on it's side.

Could have been worse.

Thanks to Derby for organizing this waytogo, and Gus for providing us a place to stay waytogo.  That was a great two days of riding, looking forward to more of this.  Somebody needs to do the pre-ride inspection for Luca next time.  Did he make it back on that tire??

yup... he actually made it to the motorcycle shop at victoria and 101 and had 'em mount up a new rimskin.
