dman, I missed it. You ride up there regularly? I ride nearly every thursday night from main parking lot. My usual loop is up service road, down wathen, up spring creek to herrington, herrington to towers, up towers to the top of spring creek, then all the way down to the parking lot on spring creek.
We try to do Tuesdays. Schedule was a little off this summer with kids' baseball and soccer, but you'll usually find us starting from the lower lot Tuesday between 5:30 and 6:00.
Don't have a typical loop. Just depends on what we feel like riding. Last night was a fast Towers, Mill Creek, Nomad loop.
I'd been planning on taking today (Wed.) off and doing a 25 mi loop I mentioned, back at the Snowy's.
Unfortunately work stepped in at the last hour, and I ended up having to work today, so I took off an an hour early yesterday and could have met you guy's if I'd turned on the 'puter yesterday morning and seen your post
Instead I did my usual boring "Power Loops" ride from home to PineRidge on the Spring Crk path ( ~ 30 ' from door to the path) , 3.5 mi of path to the trailhead, than 4 loops of PineRidge, all big chainring, fast as I can pump, than back to home, about 22 mi. total. Not much in the way of climbing at all, but I try to do it at least twice a week after work. but that's about over soon as well.

Sorry we missed you. You are probably too fast, anyway. Three weeks off the bike made me slow last night. Plan is to ride again the same time and same place next week. I'm tempted to try Towers on the SS, but don't know if I'm that brave. Got any weekend ride plans this weekend?
