2009-06-27 Sat Midnight - Overnight to Brighton

Oh and trailblazer is a term for a tour guide. I guess in the old days guides would burn marks into trees to make a path. I suppose it's more used here since it's a name of a professional basketball team.

No, the word itself is perfectly familiar over here. I was just wondering about your use of it from the context:

ha! right. i was checking weather. com and it says light rain saturday and sunday. we'll ride regardless but we'll need some trailblazers ahead of us.

This sounded a little as if you connected it with rain in some way, as the trailblazers who know the route were of course always going to come on the ride. See you Saturday!
