Thanks David C., but when it's in the 50's I like a "dry" suit rather than any "wet" suit. No matter what, were still riding in Utah!

Hey Josh & Dave, nice pic's and looks like you had some epic water today. Wish I could have made it out with you but work has been keeping me busy. I hope you guys get to ride next week because I'm living vicariously through you right now.

David ~~ Well let's see... I was riding with you and your boat, and your profile says 02 Super Air! I think it's about time to update your gauge, LOL. Next Sunday looks like it will be good at 50 deg.

December 4th was the latest we got out on Pineview last year. I believe the gauge said the water was 38. I broke my f'ing tailbone on the stupid orange buoys by the dam that day...don't try to slide those things.(Hindsight is 20/20) We're hitting up Havasu in a week and a half though!! I can't wait!

DC & Spencer ~~ Hit up www.downfortheride.com and check out more pics of the DFTR crew and catch a pull. I know we are trying to get out in Dec since neither of us has ever. We have been meeting up at noon :03 and getting to the Harbor just before one. DC I need your number so I can call you for Lake conditions, LOL. This late in the year we ride Pelican if the wind allows.
