I'm thinking the group is more diverse than homogeneous. Some want fast organized stuff on weekends. Others want longer real touring out of state. A lot would rather ride alone. Very few like me do long midweek day rides at what some would see as boring velocities. I don't post my shorter rides in the North and Westerly directions as they are mostly spur of moment things that might not interest anyone. And finally many folks can't find or won't take the time to ride. Perhaps a "Where did you ride this week" section would get some action. I had a nice 100 miler yesterday which might be the last of those unless we get some more weather gifts.

 I go up through East Bethyl on roads between 65 & 35 to Stark N.E. of Camebridge. And east to a little park on Fish Lake. Sometimes I return on other roads in that same area or for a longer putt up through Grandy snaking S.W. to Elk River and Dayton home.

  Ana Carasco takes WSSP300 title. A great day for female riders of the world.

  I've seen the drop off over the last decade. Understandably my weekday Wisconsin rides attract few folks as most others aren't retired. Used to get 6 or 8 but the last 2 seasons dwindled from 1 to 3 to none. I've kept posting them hoping to provide a little action especially to newbies who I love introducing to the Hill Country. Still contemplating a Fall color ride but not sure. Probably try again next May.

  I hate to admit it but his ability & talent cannot be denied. The Honda may have something to do with his success but the other makes are closely competitive. His dustups with Rossi are so much like Roberts vs Spencer in 83/84. I still think D.C. is a good handle for him but he's earned his achievements.

 Thanks Elk-I should know better.

 Alas, how the forum has fallen!!??

Wasn't SSB by chance? Sounds a lot like the old Caribou Death Rides in Coon rapids.
