I'm hoping to roll into Davis Friday morning and settle in for the weekend's activities. I finally purchased my ski bungalow on Thomas Ave and might as well use it during the summer too. It is a 2 minute walk to the bike shop. Finally got my "Mountaineer" creds!!!

So Red now you are Landed Gentry, way to go mountaineer.

Thanks Jimmie...now Scott can stay an extra day or two to play in the area instead of rolling back to PA and MD.

The Valley is beautiful in the summer. Big difference in temps between the Valley and DC. I spent 10 years visiting the Valley in the summer time, before I realized the Valley has the best snow and terrain in the Mid-Atlantic. Now I visit the Valley more in the winter than the summer.

Chaga - When you heading up?

Scott...are you going to be in the area this weekend or down on the flats?

I'm hoping to make it down Friday afternoon for a ride.

Good luck tonite at W@W!
