So Bomber - you're plan is Red Door at 10am, which is what, an hour and a half from home (for me) then a couple hours of riding before heading home? Trying to see if this is feasible...

Dan -- pretty much, though Holy Hill would add a bit more to the ride ;-}

I'm up for this, although my bike just went in for minor surgery. I'll have to grab something else that's lying around here.

I thought you just had a flat. Was it something more serious? I may just make this ride. My son is home from school so I'll see if he is up for a ride too.

It was just a flat but then I had to ride it aways to get it out of traffic. I think the wheel is OK but not sure. Then the trailer had one of those vise like wheel chocks that you tighten on the wheel. But they mounted two more chocks, one one each side of the center one. The right chock blocked the crank so we couldn't tighten the chock on the wheel. The bike shifted in transit and we had to resecure it. The front roters look OK but those are being checked too.

This plan is sounding gooder and gooder, as Sunday's weather forecast has gotten worser and worser.

YAY, Breadman's leading!
I will certainly lead, for a while. I can keep you turkeys entertained for 45-60 minutes of riding around there.
I can hang out until 12 or 12:30PM, so the time constraint may confine me to parts S of I 94. Let's get out there and have some fun!

Sorry, Mark!
We waited almost 20 minutes, and had no idea you might show.
Ben was wishing for a hot cup, and a ride was in order to get us to one. I led a group of seven on a Kettles ride that terminated at Milwaukee Street Traders in Delafield.
I followed bomber part of the way home, and we tore it up for 20 miles or so.
Good turnout, and nice weather. Thanks, all!
