Dangit! I reallly wanted to go to the swap meet this year, but I'll be flying back home from Curacao on February 10. Maybe next year...

Zen, I had heard that Cycle Across Maryland was going to be back in Emmitsburg this year, but hadn't seen any confirmation. I'll have to look at One Less Car's web site and check it out. That's a much more convenient location for us DC-area folks than the Eastern Shore. But the century on the eastern shore is much easier than one in the hills of Emmitsburg, I'd guess.

Regina, glad you had a good time at the RLAG ride. I remember Shaeffer being doable, even for a half-a$$ed mtb-er like me.
