I'll be in town staying at Red Rocks Friday-Sun morning. Was hoping to get out on Saturday (either Ivanpah or another Dry Lake (El Dorado or Apex).

Anyone flying on Saturday? If so, have the winds been good?

Sorry for missing this. I left town prior to your visit. Would love to ride with you if you find your way back here. I drove past Red Rock 2 days ago.

I'll definitely reach out to you the next time I come to Vegas. Would be fun to ride with you but I know there is no way I'll be able to keep up with you! My PB right now is 30 on my XR+...hoping to get to 40 one of these days :)

Well, as it turns out, the wind (at least according to the forecast was light < 10 for both Fri and Sat. Sun though (the day we left), looked really good :(.

...so I ended up staying by the pool all day and drinking with the family...not a bad way to spend the day! Also went to Red Rocks park for the first time....wow...I was really impressed, it was beautiful! Bringing the mountain bikes next time.

BTW, if I don't see you in Vegas, maybe I'll run into you (pun intended) at the Fall Bash at El Mirage! Need to get my El Mirage fix...it's been way too long...

The fall Thang is already on the calendar! El Mirage was awesome for my first visit there for the Spring Thang. I'd be honored for you to run into me! And then there is the ice cream truck. :spin:
