Just a brief afternoon ramble of just-shy-of 17 miles (16.65, he added, conscientiously), but very refreshing. Joe Starck gofast, 75, 6 miles of climbing, 3 of them steep and requiring me to stand. If I didn't have my daughter waiting at home, I'd have added a few more miles. Don't tell *me* that

Lovely. What's all that green stuff in the background? It is mostly brown here in western Colorado. I have to climb really high to be surrounded by green and even then its not green like that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
