We should be in for the WSC not sure what the plan is yet. Tandem for unknown distance is likely due to Jen's knee issue and my lack of riding still continuing despite no big running plans either.

Fish Lake is a possibility since I don't see myself signing up for the Insane Terrain at the last minute with the mileage I've got in.

Bumpity bump for Sunday.  Weather looks great.

Hey, I slowed down for you guys to catch up (at least I thought I saw you back there), and stopped at the top of Enchanted Valley, but then I didn't see you guys again.  Sorry about that.  I went 54 with 2-3 other women.  Nice ride.  I'm probably doing Aztalan Odyssey next (July 26).  Shanana, maybe the CHO will let you go - I know you've wanted to this ride for a few years - I'm going to try to make a century out of it with the ride to and from the start (and a little extra at the end).

Well after accomplishing my annual century goal (and off today lounging at home) I'm looking at the following BBC rides to close out the season (at least I'm interested in them, but not necessarily committed):

Wright Stuff Century (hope my bum knee is better by then), 9/6
Sauk City Sally (short, Sept 13)
Historic Cookville (55, 10/4)
Loops for Lefse (yum, 10/10)
Brooklyn Bop (10/18 - I'm calling it my birthday ride since it was the day before- come along please!)

And I could probably be talked into a number of others if anyone else is going, especially if they start at Lakeview or Vilas - I get my mojo back in the fall with cooler weather.

Well our plan is the WSC medium route unless we get stupid and go for the 100. I may have the boys talked into the Loops For Lefse, come see the tandem plus trail-a-bike rig. Other than that no plan, Sunday school starts soon and my Friday hours make Saturday rides tough. If the weather keeps up the Loops ride might be in snow!

I'm only doing the metric.  I am not "stupid" enough to do more than that.
I am definitely interested in seeing tandem + trail-a-bike (for 47 somewhat hilly miles, right?).  If nothing else I'm sure you'll have a good write up.  That's one ride where for the first time I will have to drive to the start because the idea of riding 30 miles back to Madison on a very stomach seems a bit much (12 is bad enough). That meal last year was delicious!

Sekaijin - I think you need to arrange Loops for Lefse as your ride of the month for October!
