Hmmm as far as meeting times nothing is set in stone yet...I'll wait and see what people want to do, but my day is actually wide open tomorrow. I just have plans in the evening. That might be a bit late for others, but lets see what happens...Oh yeah, nobody goes to class on Monday anyway dood!

you guys missed a fun ride today! Mountain was clean, and empty aside from a few big rigs passing through. Jay got pulled over on the 15 south (way home). We weren't even speeding to fast, but a cop saw him cut a lane or two. It was one of those times when you're not really doing $hit, but the pig five-0's still pull a jack move. He left me a message and said everything was okay. Cop probably gave him some BS lecture or something...Damn donut eating chumps!
Today was different for me though because I began to drag knee on command. It didn't matter if it was a left hander or a right hander the knee was coming down all day. Before, this would only happen rarely, and dragging knee was not a tool that I could actually use on command. Once I began to drag both knees today I could not stop!!! It was soooo much fun!!!!!
I have always wondered, and asked people about my form b/c I would be faster than some people who we're dragging, and I would not be. I do hang off, and usually have my knee real close to the ground. I think it was a matter of confidence for me and not being afraid to drop my weight down to let the knee hit the ground. My lean angle is not drastically lower, but my confidence is much higher. Now I can really get a feel for where the bike is when cornering!
Excuse the long post, but I just wanted to share my experince with peeps. Laaaaaaaate!

Nice! Glad to hear you had fun! I wish I could have made it. I got off work at 3pm, but I didn't think anyone would still be up there.
