To be reschedule it to a later date since people didn't seem to be able to make it this Saturday

Interesting loop encompassing a mix of interesting tracks, exciting descents and not so exciting, but fitness building ascents. Technical parts, senic parts, cruisy parts, exhilrating parts, over a range of fire trail, etc.

Just hope the weather behaves. The track drains extremely well, but after trashing my bike in the rain a couple of months ago, I want to take every precaution necessary to avoid spending another $400, and will cancel if it's wet/raining.

To be rescheduling after the %%$^%#$ weather reports advised about the winds scheduled, and the tracks are probably covered with fallen trees.

The pace will be "brisk social" - This will mean a couple of stops will happen at the creeks and the helipad, though besides that I want us to be able to move along at a fairly rapid pace, so it'd be preferable to ride with people with a higher degree of fitness.
