The Turkey Day ride was a blast-huge group of WGaS (not so huge) and Albertos (huge) riders. Eric, Craig, Steve and I joined Brendan and about 25 others for a nice Thanksgiving ride on the DPR Trail. Fast pace northto 120 which split the group (all WGaS studs with the front). At 120 the groups made a stop and some flipped and then about 12-15 contined north to Gurnee. The trail was agin treachorous with snow and ice causing a lot of moans and graons. But alas only one ride-to this writer's knowledge-bit the snow. Of course, his Steve's name shall not be revelaed to protect his privacy.
And there was a surprise appearance in the Daniel Wright Woods parking lot by Fred Wadman who was out for a solo road ride and Tucci who was solo on a road/trail solo sojourn.
All in all a nice morning with home made scones from Wendy after the ride with Clif Recovery hot chocolate to wash them down.

Due to time constraints I rode with the GTE boys - man was the trail icy and difficult in spots - many of them had studded tires and made it a bit easier - Lets be careful out there.
Will be riding with them again tomorrow (Sat) due to family committments - have fun and be safe.
