    it's a short walk to take a leak or a dump.

    Man, this place is sounding better and better ;-)

    haven't even gotten us started on the interior... ;-)

    Good thing the trip is not about the hovel, but about the ride.

    Tent, sleeping bag, bike, bike gear - what more do you need?

    I was going to ask you about that. I'm still working on the boss, I hope to get her approval.
    Right now it is just about the money, that and I leave for Alaska 2 weeks later.

    gas and food, what else is there? Oh yeah, Beer.

    Bear repellant is always a good idea, too. 🙂 (in either pepper or .44 mag flavors)

    Funny you should mention bears. I heard just today of 3 different bear sitings in that immediate
    vicinity. Must be Yogi and Booboo.

    Yep, they've been in the news lately in the southcentral Alaska area. Always a good idea to be
    cautious in the early summer, when the mothers are stressed out over watching their kid(s). And be
    careful around wildlife, too!

    Looks like a nice time from the video that's posted there. The finesse and ease with which JD(?)
    moves over that boulder makes me envious.

    Let's see, drive 10 hours (each way) to ride my bike with a group of total strangers around a lake
    in the middle of nowhere... Sounds like fun. Are you planning on riding all 3 days?

    only 22.5? think how long it would take me. taking into account gas stops every 25 miles or so
    (rough figure, never gauged miles per tank as i have never run it dry, nor do i have the money to
    fill it just to see how long it runs on a tank. (hell, i had to scrounge bottles from the side of
    the road for the last 3 gallons i put in it.)

    Ok, here goes...

    <StatementOfQualifications>

    1-I wear roadie shorts! ok, my roadie shorts are getting old and the stitching on the pad is
    starting to chafe on long rides. On long rides, I have taken to wearing cutoffs, but I like my old
    roadie shorts.

    2-I do not ride a boutique bike. Even worse, I ride an FSR. But hey, I like how it handles and the
    price was right.

    Oh and my bike handling skills still suck. You would think after the zillion miles I have logged
    that they would be better, but I still need the clipless pedals to bunny hop, my wheelies go all
    of about three feet and lets not talk about logs. I guess that is what happens when you always
    ride alone.

    I probably wouldn't be able to ride 3 days, most likely I would drive down on Thursday Evening or
    Friday. Ride for one day, you folks would get sick of waiting for my slow ass and ditch me. Then I
    would wander around in the woods for the next 18 hours, fending off a bear attacks, and rabid
    beavers, until eventually I am able to stumble back to my car. Sleep in the car and drive back just
    in time to return to work on Monday only to promptly fall asleep at my desk.

    Those do look like some nice trails though. I'll have to see about getting the time off work.
