Good to see and ride with you tonight Brad. Been so long I almost forgot your name. Glad to see you still know how to ride a bike! :wink: A few of us stuck around for quite a while after you left for Chads light Demo, that was a blast! Riding the trails with Logan was awesome, that dog runs those trails better then some of us ride them!

Great ride out there tonight. Been off the bike for a weeks and it felt good to hit the dirt. Good to meet some guys and good to see Chad. Now I just need to charge up my lights and comb a bunch of burrs out of the mutt! I want to get back out there and ride those stunts some more. Those were pretty cool.

Good riding with you again, it's been a while. I can't wait until my Aussie is as trail capable as your border. I know he has it in him just going to be a while, needs some off the leash training before he hits the trails though. It was pretty sweet riding behind him and looking at my speed on my computer and he was right there with us.

I thought I was at Island Lake for a minute there. A horde of bikers descended on Anderson, overflowing the parking. I thought we kept a pretty good clip through red for such a large group.

Don- your trail dog is awesome. Thanks to Chad for the light usage. Green backwards and under the stars was a different experience.

Do yourself a favor and don't respond to anything I say on here (ever). You try to start enough crap as it is and I have ignored you for too long! It was the first time I ever met Don's dog in person and could not remember his name.

LOL! Thanks for riding with Fuzznuts, I mean Logan. He was a little high strung tonight because he hasn't been out in a while. I lost him for a while in the dark when he went hunting. :( It was good to see alot of riders out enjoying the weather and the great trail conditions.

I think you will like the drops that I plan on putting in. The posts are set, but I need to get some boards from Jeff and try to squeeze some time out of my fall schedule.

It was great riding with and seeing the group again.

Right now, I've got a 60% chance of rain from 2 to 8pm, with an expected accumulation of 0.03 inches over that period. If that holds up, I'll figure on riding.

4:30 for me. Lots of rain likely after dark.

What a nice night it was. Had a great ride and good dinner after with Dave and Remke(sp?). The leaves will keep you on your toes, or butt as in my case. Just got home from the ER. Deep puncture wounds that won't stop oozing blood, went into the muscle. looks like a bone bruise to boot. Didn't seem too bad getting off the trail. Couldn't put any weight on it this morning. Looks like my prep for Iceman will be very limited. Still, looking forward to my next night ride through those tight trees.

Oh boy, that is some bad luck; maybe you shouldn't have lent me (sp=ok) your spare lamp. At least your injury may be featured on the FB page of Leo's Lodge!
