Conflicting info but I believe it's 8300'. Too much (probably Canadian) smoke to see any distance. My brother is in town so we went for a half day ride. It was the first real test for the blue bike and it did great. Neither one were all that happy at that altitude.

Crazy times.

Wow. You're probably about the last person on earth I'd worry about stealing from me. I guess you have plenty of witnesses if he follows through with any of his threats.
Are you not naming names to be the bigger man or just don't remember who he is?
