So a few of us were thinking it would be a really great idea to go for a ride before the BBq on Monday ... We could do a nice long ride or a quick short ride, no matter to me . We also will need to make sure we're back by at least 4pm , or earlier if pple prefer . My suggestion was to have lunch at Lanesboro , and Major Slow knows the area well , so hopefully he'll chime in . If anybody has routes they want to ride , please post up ... cause u know, u dont want me comin up with a route :-\
Sounds fun. How far is Lansboro? I think the St. Croix river route and some of the small towns, like Canon Falls and Afton, will be packed with people on Monday.
I'm think I'm going down that way to ride in the dirt. If you guys make a lunch meet spot post it up maybe I'll meet you [bacon]
Count me in. Let me know when and where. No preference on long or short ride.
So who wants to come up with a route ?
Your idea, your route :)
