No sweat....just let me know..always willing to ride.
Thinking of putting together a Slee order for some 100 stuff if there is anything you want to throw in there.

Road ride sunday would work for me. The trails will be very wet tomorrow and sunday. So, any suggestions on road rides and time?

Depends on how much climbing you want to do....there is a great ride from Biltmore Lake if you go up 151 to the parkway.
That's a vertical wall . . . 
How about something nice and easy to start the season off. Maybe the River Ride or the Butter Ride in Henderson County. I've got a nice 23 mile ride from my house, down to the river, and back.

Rode a couple of hours today at Bent Creek before the rain...the trails were in great shape. Fantastic to be out and getting some leg work in.
Tim,
I'll be there at 12:45! That sounds like a good season opener. Merle, glad you got in a ride today. I had to finish up putting in a a new sidewalk before the rain came ine.

Weaverville is very different than the rest of the world . . . those blue stripes are for "2 hour parking," which we of course violated

Just over 2300 feet in 34.4 miles. Nice ride....Assault on the Carolina's is the end of the month
.....can you say Ceaser's Head?
Timbo,
The absolute best mountain bike ride I know of starts from the fish hatchery, climbs up a steep forest service road (476?), and comes down through single track finishing up on the "hydraulics" alongside the Davidson River. Some people call it the "Caney Bottoms" ride.
Merle,
The Assault on the Carolinas is more of a mugging or a simple afray. It's a great ride and I usually take the shorter 50 mile option this early in the season.
