There is a newborn at my house and a (so far) understanding wife. BYOB if you plan on more than a couple. Homebrew is on tap, but I’m not sure how much is left and how quickly the next batch will be ready. Bring a camp chair. We will be outside, so as not to bother the baby. —————————————————————————————– If you love mountain biking and care about the environment, you belong with IMBA.
