You guys need an AV flag to fly over the TE tent city
And when you're done, let the Mid-Atlantic contingent borrow it for our canal ride

Is there a TE flag? I looked, we don't really even have a TE jersey. UK and I wore AV jerseys on day 1 last year.

Especially for our 1st time ALC'ers, let everyone in your circle know that they can send a message of support to you and any or all riders and crew during the ride. Starting on Day 1 ALC will webcast live from their site with pictures, maybe they will have podcasts again, rider blogs.
There will be a link to send a message to a rider. These are printed out and downloaded daily by your amazing crew. After long day in the saddle trust me, these messages of support kept me going. Especially last year when I was struggling with injury it was very helpful.
You won't be able to reply, it's not e'mail but we will be able to send a greeting to you!! So let's get a list of your rider numbers together (if you want) that way we'll be able to cheer you on.Fancy Schmancy Custom Road bike ~ Mondonico Futura Legero

First Timer - ALC7 (2008)
Totally brand spanking new to biking and I am bicycling in AIDS/LifeCycle, which if you don't already know is 7-days, 545-miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles on June 1-7, 2008. DONATE: http://www.aidslifecycle.org/1613.
Went on my first bike ride in over 7 years back in Jan 2008, so this will be a huge challenge for me. Any tips, tricks, suggestions, etc. would be so welcomed!
I also need a tent-mate for the ALC, if anyone else is looking (ACG, are you still needing one?). I am a really slow rider, btw!
Trek420 - Thanks for the tip on "send messages of support" during the ride. I am going to tell everyone I know about that, especially my donors.
