NOTES
- Awesome numbers in the gloom today!
- The most oft spoken name not in attendance this morning was . . . Maple Syrup! Pax are missing you bro. Hope your ears were burning.
- YHC was honored to lead by design this morning! It was great to need to sign up for the Pile Driver since this slot is most often first gone.
- YHC suspects everyone in attendance this morning didn’t mind the rain that started near the end of our time slot. Great to have a little slice of the heavens rinsing off the dirt of a good workout. #wetseatbelt
- Great to see the new faces (transient or otherwise) coming back again and again!
ANNOUNCEMENTS
- Grandfather Mountain Profile Hike to Calloway Peak – Saturday November 4, 2017 – 0900 start – all pax are welcome. Capable 2.0s and FiA’s as well. Looking forward to some great mumblechatter and more than a few slices of humble pie!

Gigger has been whining all day about having to carry me, even though he outweighs me by two score. #truthnugget
