Started well behind Pink Karen's group, and parked off of GMR on Palm, and rode "catch up" to Baldy village, then on to the ski lifts; on the way back, I put in a little extra credit riding down the back side of GMR to the gate at East Fork, then back up, which was Judy's ride plan. TJ did a repeat up "Bowling Alley" with me as he was on his way back down by the time I made it there. Teresa Beck was in her nurse's uniform costume at the end of bowling alley providing SAG support, and gave me a Coke. Perfect day for riding, and a lot of the usual suspects were out there, including Molly, Rick, Vic, Vertical Bob, Margaret, TJ, Judy & Carl. Rode fairly hard after crossing the locked gate at the bottom of GMR to the first "regroup" location at the driveway for the little equipment yard (shortly after the first relief). Rode easy up the back side of GMR. Was really enjoying the descent until I came up on a guy that had a flat with no inflation device; I loaned him my pump, and then he begged Judy for help when she was descending and she showed him how to use a CO2 cartridge. I got my pump back on my way back up as he was descending.
