    You go, girl!

    I'll be conquering a similar feat that day--wearing high heels at a wedding. Believe me, I'd rather be riding (but not THAT far!!!). Have fun!

    LOL - and you get to exercise your arm at the same time. Aussies know all about arm exercises.
    The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

    I hope it's a great ride. I have so much admiration for you ultra-distance riders.

    Looking forward to reading your report.

    Wow guys - I just saw this! Thanks SO much for the well wishes. Gosh, V - I am all flustered! How nice. I generally keep plans like this all quiet, but it is amazing to have all this support right there on the front end.

    I wish it weren't so far, too! Oh - you meant far AWAY! You should try to get up here for this or TT one of these days. Well worth the trip. (Though I am hardly one to talk as I hardly ever go south of here for rides. I hate driving to a ride I am going to do by myself, and that's most of my doubles.)

    Do as I say, not as I do. (And I really don't even mean that flippantly. What I tell you guys to do is YOUR training program, not mine.)

    Now off to make my little drink package baggies.... We had a moment of panic last night as we could not find the charger for the flame thrower headlamp. Duh. Found it. I was envisioning Calaveras with a little LED light.

    Here's last time: http://forums.teamestrogen.com/showthread.php?t=15205

    Reading it over for tips. Must go over the route (that part after Sierra Rd is SO confusing). Decided on 11 baggies. Made 12, which is good because one opened on the floor.

    Here's my favorite quote from the last time:

    "I swore at the end of the ride that I would never do it again, but now I’m not so sure."

    Have fun!!
