Rob and I ran the Nocibur today. The trail was extremely wet. More water than I've ever seen on the trail. We had to wait 1-1/2 hours at the top of Cadilac for a super slow group to come up. They actually stopped half way up and took a 20 minute break. Couldn't believe it. Otherwise, we didn't see anybody else driving the trail until after Little Sluice. We made it accross in 5 hours driving time. Rob broke his dual rate front sway bar just like Brad and Bill. Exact same spot and the others. Other than the sway bar, we had absolutely no difficulty. There was a volunteer at 1,000 Dollar Hill directing traffic, so that was very cool. We took the old bypass that ends up between the two big trees on the ridge. I haven't driven that way in years, and I kind of got lost a couple of times. The trail was beautiful and wasn't too dusty. The mosquitos were bad only at times, but I bet they were going to get rediculous at night. Had a blast and can't wait for the Roundup.

I used to wheel a lot. . .

It was a great day. And I give major credit to the Rubican Trail Foundation for having a guy out there educating people on the new restrictions and routes. My biggest fear was getting out there and getting in trouble for not knowing the right way to go.

Are you talking about MobileMe? If so, I love it! I use it all the time to keep my contacts, calendars, and photos in sync. Very easy to use and well worth the $100.00 a year I pay for the service. No matter what computer I am at, I have access to all my stuff.
