Last night's regular steel*wool Thursday night ride was partially apportioned in my favor since we are leaving the state for norcal pretty soon. ( Not as soon as previously planned, but still -- I'm only going to get one party!) It was good excuse to get some of these family guys up the hill to ride some Ned singletrack anyways! Thanks to Heyride, The Powers, Big Daddy, and KPOW for all the extra work and $ that went into the night. I'm lucky to have you as friends!
We did a short ride on the local stuff north of town and ended with some fun no brakes curvy singletrack before shooting down to the Reservoir on a trail I've somehow never done before. Funny how that goes. I've been here HOW long and still find new stuff that has been there for years? Nuts. So anyways, here's some photos from the night.

| Crazy fast riders drinking beer on rides is so refreshing to see. |

| Catching up with G-daddy who made the trip up from the Springs! That's me on the left with a sweet going away jersey...just AWESOME! I'm looking more like my grandfather every year... |

| I've never ridden this trail before either, even though I live here. WTF?! It's just so obvious! |
 |
| Upon return, the skies opened up in a lightening storm. Luckily we were inside with pints and tapas. |

Thanks y'all for showing up for the ride and after-party...it meant a lot to me and Mrs. Meriwether!
