Just noticed it looks like 33 bikes for the Redwood Rally. What are everyone's thoughts about breaking up into two groups? Kris, you know the roads/routes will a group of 33 create problems.

Stan,

That's what we are already planning on doing. After Custer, there is no way I would lead that many bike again. I had a group of 40+ bikes and we were strung out over a mile.

More than likely, Deb and I along with Operator and his wife will miss a few of the day rides. After 4 long days to get there, a long day ride the next day probably won't be in the cards. We didn't end up going on any day rides in Custer as well, so hopefully no one takes offence.

No worries voyager. I missed 2 out of the 3 rides in Custer because I wanted to do my own thing. it was almost 1500 miles there so riding 350 a day after getting there wasn't going to happen. I took short 90 mile rides through Custer state park and Mt. rushmore and Crazy hourse with Daryl....

I won't be riding this Tuesday either as I'm visiting them on the way up from So Cal on monday and traveling up the Ave. of the Giants. Tuesday is "check out the town day".
