Oh, I'll do the ride. And I might as well do lunch. :) I guess we have a full month to figure out logistics.
I actually can go either way on the tour, so if shuffling or switching is needed, I can be a maybe. (Realizing that I committed to reimbursing SadieKate, which I am agreed to one way or the other.)
lunch? of course! :pQuote:

You people are making it very difficult for me to forget about the one last piece of Peets/Scharffenberger I have in the fridge..... :cool:
I have three mini bars I picked up at the Dry Creek General store last weekend.
Bittersweet
Semisweet
Nibby Bar
I'm trying to ignore their call....
They're pretty loud, huh, Snap?
Screaming!Quote:

I don't know about MP's but my three bars are still safe and sound. Such a good little weight watcher person am I.....Quote:

At 1/2 of that late in the afternoon (2 points, Snap and I counted them!).
So the rest of today's bar is now in the fridge with the hospital chocolate. Maybe I end up with a bunch of partly eaten bits of fancy chocolate bars and then some day have a party and just finish them off.. :rolleyes:
Sheesh you guys have way too much willpower.
Or way too much middle bulge........Quote:

Adding 4 more (1 is a maybe) who will probably do the lunch and ride also. Anything others?

Update.
The three mini bars have bit the dust.:rolleyes:
Did you guys know there is a cafe at the factory? Or am I having a "duh" moment?

Hey Gals....just joining this thread. SK, would you put me down as a maybe (edit: for the lunch, ride, and tour)? I have to check with the Mr. to see if he can babysit the kiddos. I've been gone alot from the homestead lately (just got back from another quick trip to Maine for family stuff & I signed up for the Cool Breeze next weekend....yada yada), so it's iffy.Quote:

Wow! Heck, that would allow us to re-group after the ride and maybe be on time for the tour. What time did I say the tour is?Quote:

I can't find the time for the tour....guess I'll just hang out a the factory all day looking pitiful. Maybe people will give me chocolate......
See post #1 -- 3:30 pm
That possibility did occur to me. The kids would love it (duh! it's chocolate :D ). Lemme propose it to him and see what he thinks.Quote:

Did I get that right that we'd meet for lunch before the ride? And the ride is about 30 miles? At a leisurely pace, would that be about a 2 to 2.5-hour ride....correct me if I have that wrong (I rarely ride 30 miles at a leisurely pace these days...the group here has gone speed-crazy :p ).
I believe the schedule is Ride, Eat, Tour. We'd have to check with the Ride and Eats Director.
Oops, Z, add me & the Mr. to the ride-and-lunch list too.
Ed. to add: pleeeze
Put me on the ride list too, I'm assuming this won't be a crack of dawn ride?
whah! I want to ride :mad:
What's the prognosis? Healing as planned? Faster? Higher? Stronger? Are you planning your comeback?
I am healing well but doc says no bike yet (it's been a month since the accident). He wanted me to come back in another month for an x-ray (I saw him a week ago) but my health insurance ran out today and my temporary insurance won't cover "pre-existing conditions." Because I was a student, not an employee, I'm not eligible for Cobra (probaby couldn't afford it anyway). No job yet, so I don't have stellar insurance yet - but I'm covered if something horrible were to happen....
so the short answer is I don't know. His expert advice, sans x-ray, is "if it hurts, don't do it" :p Right now it still hurts to lift anything that weighs more than a glass of water (you'd think that would stop me - hahaha)....
I'd like to do the 12 mile ride for Bike Against the Odds on 9/10. I'll have to do a test ride a few days before to see how I feel. Flat may be OK, but I'm not sure about the 400 feet of climbing on that ride. I realize that's nothing but I guess I won't know until I try.....
Thanks for asking! Can't wait to see you all!
Okay, I must officially say I can't make it. Elizabeth has a birthday party that day and I think Blaine is going to have to work. I will miss you guys! :(
I just went through all the recent posts - did I catch everyone for the ride/lunch portion of the festivities?

My "maybe" for the tour, lunch and ride has to change to a "nope". Sorry. More travels for work, blah blah blah.... If they could give me a little advanced warning, but noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo:mad: But that's another story. Maybe I'll spend the time while you guys are on the tour eating chocolate!
Oh AG - what a bummer!
Hey, BZ! Why don't you start a whole new thread so the details aren't buried in this one. I'll let you start as the Ride and Eats Director which comes before the Tour. Take Sue F off the list.
AG!!!:(
