Let's go to Hawk Camp; that would be so cool and I've never been
there. Juniper is also amazing, though in February, I'm thinking it
would be cold.

Did you want to ride and stay in Walnut Creek or else where? I was thinking 
Hawk Camp in the Marin Headlands is always a nice place to camp if you 
never been bike camping before. Juniper at Diablo is always good, views are 
amazing, if you can stomach all the climbing.

There's the distinction!  

Manny is a good ride ORGANIZER, but Manny is far from ORGANIZED.  HA!

Count me tentatively IN for a Diablo overnighter, although I'm more likely 
to do the road route.

While I can't reveal my sources, I can be more precise with my source's 
quote.  With respect to rides originating from riv HQ, these rides "tend to 
be impromptu to a huge degree---unless Manny's involved, in which case he's 
good at organizing."  So I perhaps took liberties by offering that you are 
the *most* organized—however, that doesn't mean that the statement was 
wrong!  Proof's in the pictures, right?

What I had in mind was some not-too-skills-intensive-or-hump-busting trail 
riding and would be *thrilled* with a S24H.  Most of my riding is urban 
riding, with a 20-mile round-trip commute.  I ride in the winter as much as 
I can in addition to spring-summer-fall and carry grocery loads, but have 
less experience with trail riding, and no experience with steep trail 
riding.  I am though, adventuresome.  I'm also a good camper.  I would need 
to borrow a Riv because my Bike Friday Pocket Rocket (which is a bit of a 
joke since I'm not a rocket) won't do trails.  If a S24H is in the offing, 
I'd figure out camping equipment and beg Grant for an overnight 
bike-borrow.  Trying it on a Betty would be a good idea given I might do a 
mixte warhorse.

Mostly, I'd just like to meet the gang!

Liesl, Where get your information about me being the most organized of the 
bunch is greatly exaggerated. Never the less I would love to meet the 
infamous Riv Chica warrior. I'll be off on break that week so I'll be up 
for anything. What did you have in mind?
