    Yeah, I was going to mention how things will change when budgeting for kids, but I figured you would add that. Lol. I don't have kids so I get to keep my money.

    I just don't want this to turn into the overland riding type trip planning.

    It's biking. Just go. Just ride. Don't need weeks of planning, just if you're available and want to ride, then ride. Setting dates doesn't seem to work lol.

    That's why I go by myself half the time. Lol. Planning anything with anyone out of town is so difficult. Just show up when you can otherwise I'll see ya'll when you're free. I'm still riding though.

    I get that, so tell us when you're coming.

    This is how "planning" goes around here:

    what date works? failed poll because people don't know
    date gets set. yeah we're all good
    oh wait I forgot about this and didn't ask the wife. date no good

    but knowing too far in advance risks weather issues.

    I just didn't want to come down to Oak Mtn driving alone because it's far enough I can't do it often so just want to make sure I can and do go when Wes can.

    I can 99% of the time make a ride at Monte Sano if y'all come up.

    yeah unless it's a 2-3 hour ride at Monte Sano I'm out till 2020. too much going on and haven't started on making christmas presents yet.

    if Oak Mtn was as close as Monte Sano I'd hit it often, I can hit a 3 hour ride at Monte Sano in the amount of time it takes to get to Oak Mtn and ride 1 trail..

    btw I wasn't taking anything out on you or mad or anything, just pointing out how "planning" goes.

    best way is you pick a date and go, and see who comes. that's about it.
