Snake Tongue

QIC: Wedding Singer
The PAX: The Yankee Aggressor, Lab Rat, Saab, Bone Thugs, Swirly, Oyster, Shiplap, Wheelie, No tools, Pee Wee, Pullout, Bodos, BT, Bleeder, Fireman Ed, Wedding Singer

14 arose and conquered. Short run – snake tongue route. Left on Grove, left on Granite, across Cary down Kennondale. 4s return the way you came. 5s do Tempsford and return home. No 6s. Oyster ran the Oyster route. Long run did the reverse Carillon. Great job men. Only a few of us on the short run today but it was a good morning to be out nonetheless. Hard pressed to find a longer hill than Kennondale from RAMM, perhaps YHC shouldn’t announce such a challenge. Thanks to Shiplap for keeping our average age down.

“A society that puts equality—in the sense of equality of outcome—ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality nor freedom. The use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom, and the force, introduced for good purposes, will end up in the hands of people who use it to promote their own interests.” “The most harm of all is done when power is in the hands of people who are absolutely persuaded of the purity of their intentions.” -Milton Friedman 11 warriors answered the call of duty without force or coercion, driven by their own self interest to improve…
