I don’t remember what brand they were... They were at Performance. Most comfortable jerseys I’ve ever worn.

This isn’t the Who’s Not Telling Where They’re Riding thread...
Rubber down, ‘dog. PS: This from a rider who doesn’t mention trail names in his reports...

Sadly, I have a shuttle driver. 
After decades of all sorts of abuse, my sweetie's knee is exhibiting signs of needing a good meniscus scoping. So we'll just take a nice drive together...
To the Tahoe Rim Trail, Big Meadow TH (down south on the 50).
If I can get to Tahoe Meadows TH (Mount Rose) at the north side, that'll be ~70 miles of TRT. I tried once last year and got shut down at dusk when a rain squall rolled in and killed my attitude. Decent chance I can get it in the light this time of year. My last ride was not infused with Tailwinds, and I had gas in my tank after 11 hours. The hardtail/SS will work just fine; negligibly more difficult than my geared FS, as I've been discovering.
This ride, except no Tyrolean DH at the end:

Nice...
Why the 10 mile out and back at the beginning?
Edit: And I meant nice about the ride... not about the knee issues. That part doesn’t get a like...

Thanks, Steve. That knee has chicked me on too many hikes to count. Rides, too. It was incredible how fast one pint-sized hiker can move downhill. The price of it seems to be coming to bear... Common problem/fix, NBD, I'm guessing.Nice...

That 5-mi out/back section runs into the SOT. The logical (only?) way to ride it is out/back from 89/Luther Pass Rd (not 50 as I've said). I stash my pack and pick it up on the way back. It's a nice section that runs through Meiss Meadow and by Round Lake, some fast fun in both directions, minimal HAB.

I have a route in mind... Actually I have two routes in mind. We'll see which one comes true!
Both are in the San Gabes...

Plan is Harding to Joplin, but is it wise to go it alone? I hear stories of the kitty cats...

I'd worry more about the poison oak. But if it hasn't been raining, it might not be hanging onto the trail like a few weeks ago...
I'd love to come join you, but your start time isn't doable.

You figured out what time your starting yet and where from @DangerDirtyD?

Yes, along with $1 million Policy for each, but the underwriters don’t like it when I ride safe.

I’m thinking I’ll mount the portable speakers to the pack and play some tunes out loud as a deterrent if I’m solo.
Seriously tho, I’m an emanating, secreting, ripe organism that attracts many predators. Particularly the mosquito.

Starting around 1:30pm. Plan to park off of Santiago Cyn Road just north of Cook’s Corner.

Heck yeah! It would make for a more adventurous ride which would make for a more bettah RR. And, you won’t be alone. With the beaches closed for the holiday weekend, the trails are gonna be SLAMMMMED.

Hmmm... I bet there won’t be free hot dogs this year.
And you’ll miss out on being part of the parade.
