Generally, when there's a long weekend, the troops use it as an excuse to rally.  We call it a quorum when we have a total of three or more usually.  Plans came together rather quickly for a Saturday morning ride at Baker's house.   The assumption was that we would four or five at the most.  Once everyone showed, we wound up with a total of nine.  A sizable presence indeed.

Plans were to leave his house at 6:30 which usually means 7 with this large of a group.  The thought was to link together two trail systems with some roads tied in between.  Road...Usery...Road...Hawes...Road...TRW...Road.  

Early on, there was a ton of trail traffic at Usery, which was to be expected on a 90 degree day in May.  It was one of those days that you want to bottle up and save for Late August.  Somehow, we even had cloud cover due to a "cold" front.  Even though it's been months (years?) since we've seen rain, the trails were in remarkably good condition.  Good flow.  Good friends.

The good news post ride was that Dave has a pool immediately adjacent to his house.  The plan was to hit the pool, hit a few beers, hit some delicious french dip, hit some washers and then hit the road.  Needless to say, I think we ticked all the boxes.
