If interested, reply to me before 7PM tonight and I'll figure out a ride close to 30 miles and be done by noonish Brian Cox brian@coxintl.com -- ----------------------------------------------------   http://www.foothillcycle.org/ --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Foothill Cycling Club" group.
