[OrRando] Woodburn Heatburn Recap..

>We had the trio of

i must, of course, somewhat correct - only tony and ira build - my 
steed was a jack taylor - handbuilt indeed, but not by me! :)

and mendoza's was well worth it. i cannot recommend enough, and 
should have bought pastries to stuff in my bag for the ride back.

ill see if i can get more dirt on my bike by next time :)
