I did not have a good ride today. I was trying to keep up with Brian on a rolling trail, but I was having trouble shifting. The next thing I know my rear derailer swallows a spoke and gets pulled into my brakes. I don't think I'll be able to replace it before Saturday.


Who has a 18-19" MTB I can borrow?

I don't think they rent bikes at Warda anymore, but its worth a shot to look into.

ya, because C's is only 6 miles, you can handle 18 for A's.  Plus, Jessica and Rachel will be racing B's and I think we can only get points for 2 Women's B.

You can do whatever you want Vanessa.  If you dont feel like doing 18miles, that's fine.  I'm not wanting you there to get points, just want you to represent the team is all.  That and to get you mtbking again to see if you'll enjoy it again.

Its a matter of getting the compatible parts before sat. morning I am guessing.  the derailleur hanger might be the hardest.
