OK - I'm in for the dinner too

- I'm looking forward to seeing all of you guys, and meeting the folks I haven't met yet.

Well gals -

I'm gonna be missing dinner with y'all - bummer!

I'm meeting up with an old friend of mine that lives up in the Eureka area. I convinced her to meet me halfway (that would be Dublin) so we could catch up. She knows of some awesome dinner spot somewhere within driving distance up there (her opinion...we'll see...I still say nothing compares to Vito's in Pacific Grove!!), so we're meeting at the hotel and then going to dinner from there. I was torn for a bit on what to do, see her or see all of you, and then I realized that this is a rare opportunity, whereas I'll probably see some of you sometime this summer on a Monterey ride or something....Anyway, I reeeally hope you guys have fun, carb up well, and enjoy the strolling Mariachis... wouldn't that be funny if there were??!

Ok, about the ride, tho' -- if there are any of you who are wanting/needing a faster-pace riding partner (say 17-18mph...ok, I'll be honest, maybe 19+...when not avoiding pedestrians, cars, and novices), I'd be very interested in meeting up (BikeGoddess...CindySue???). Last year, I did the whole ride alone, and although I'm willing to again, it would be fun to have some company this time. Cindysue, I think you have my cell # already, and actually, BG, I think you do too! PM me - anyone - if you want to join up.

Fun fun! Only about a week left! Have fun at the dinner, everyone! I'll be there in spirit!

Do we know how many are coming? Is the restaurant ready for the natural disaster that are the women of TE descending on them?

Mel who hasn't had the time to ride in a week due to a new job

Ooops - a correction Trek - I think BikeMomma won't be attending the dinner

**Adventure Girl** · 03-22-2006, 07:19 AM

I won't be at the dinner.

**bikerz** · 03-22-2006, 07:25 AM

Hey AG - I'll be sorry not to see you! I heard a rumor there may be another Monerey to Carmel ride? this spring... that would be sooo fun. Hope you are well!

Is that me on the list? I won't be there either, quiet night before the Cindy for me.

**Bike Goddess** · 03-22-2006, 09:17 AM

Sorry the Snap lady isn't coming. Aren't you the one that brought the "glass" slippers or was it the lei (I still have both!).

We'll miss you all, hopefully see you bright and early Saturday Morning.

BTW - Linda Longinetti, the artist who does cards, posters (she's done a new one for the Cinderella ride this year) will be in the vendor area. Be sure to stop by and say hello. She'll love talking with all of you! She is also a cyclist and interested in cycling products for women.

Hope you all have fun at the dinner. Maybe I'll see ya at the ride. I'm bringing three Cindy Virgins and we'll be at the start around 7:30-ish. I'll have my rainbow jacket on and orange wings on my camelbak.

I was cleaning some stuff out last night, and found the pink lei, Cindy route sheet, and my bib #.....that was nice....but I guess that means I'm a pack rat!!!

see ya!

**Melody** · 03-23-2006, 11:21 PM

Ok. All packed up, maps to/from the restaurant saved. Map to Cindy start saved.

Now, all I have to do is print things out tomorrow, see everyone for dinner, pack the car with clothes and bike and I'm good to go.

Everything is all set up here at home in a nice little corner. I've already gone over the essentials:

Shoes.. check
shorts (2).. check
jersey (2).. check
bra (2).. check
socks (2).. check
rain paints.. check
light jacket.. check
helmet.. check
GU.. check
water bottles.. check
tools, spare tubes (2), patch kit, tire irons.. check
floor pump.. check
Cindy Reg card.. check (VERY IMPORTANT! heh)
Glucose Meter.. check

Ok. So, did I miss anything?

Now I just need to make sure I don't forget one of the bags.

Mel the paranoid

Oh, Cindy Virgins...never mind

Adding to the list....
Gloves (I'm wearing liners as well)
Gortex Jacket (if you have one- they work well in this kind of weather
Wool socks - also from REI- work great in the rain!
Shoe covers- if it's wet, they help keep your feet dry
Long pants (my winter riding pants that have that fuzzy lining)
Long sleeved wool top under long sleeve winter jersey (discovered these at REI in the skii section. Breathe well and keep me dry!)
Sunglasses (just in case)
Camera- probably leave in car for pics later
Head covering- as in warm hat that goes over ears under helmet
Money for eating later on- the after ride food is okay, but I'd rather go out with you all!
Smiles- our annual ride together!

**Trek420** · 03-24-2006, 07:02 AM

...covers everything I like.

Cat cr**, keep the glasses from fogging up
