Sliding around

It can’t be 5:30?  There’s only 5 pax here and this is the Rubicon where we never have less than 10 but average closer to 15.  Was it because YHC has the Q or just a perfect storm of vacations, fartsacking and other AO pull? Anyway, a good day to …

Bro-mancing the Stone

24 PAQs With several Q’s lately requiring super sweaty dudes to get up brose and personal, I knew it was time from a complete bro-o-thon.  It turned out be a low mosey workout with only a little over 1 mile as the brow flies.  There is no better way to …

Double the Crowd = Double the DORA

Warm Up: We moseyed down to the normal intersection for warm-ups. With all the extra PAX today, we caused quite traffic jam. Among the traffic passing through, we found our FNG. Welcome Bagger. Clyde took parking lot duty and guided Bagger to a parking spot and caught back up with …
