DR_Bar! How about this evening after I get back in to town following work? I'll just check with Jen later (she is still sleeping) and let you know if she will be coming along. What part of town are you in?

If I was still in Calgary I would be happy to go for a ride with you! Same applies with me in Houston if you are in the area. :revv:

Take one of my favorite routes into the bandlands with a Ghost Town at the end of the ride. :D

Between points B and C is short packed 2 lane dirt road, but everything else is paved and well worth the ride.

Atlas Coal Mine Museum (which you CAN enter for I think a few bucks, well worth doing at Point C)

I'm way in the northwest, Stoney and country hills area...

If it works for you, I'd love to meet up again.

A great big thank you to High_Side for a great vist on Tuesday evening and for treating me to snack and a brew. Too bad the better half was busy... Interesting choice of location as well, should have got a pic of our bikini clad server... LOL
