Where are you staying? LeeBob and I are staying Friday night at the HI Express in Santa Rosa. We plan to check in for the ride on Friday evening. Dinner plans, anyone?
What distance are you riding? We both registered for the 200K, but Lee is most likely riding the 100K, he's been riding very little lately. I don't think I'll be back up to snuff for the full 200K, but I'll be happy to tag along on at least the scenic part of it.
What time are you planning on starting? What MP said, as early as we can - probably 7:30
What are you wearing? Amici Veloci my ***, of course ! and Lee will probably be wearing green wool.
Are you sticking around for the great BBQ after the ride? Duh, what do you think?

No need to. Apparently Rod is coming equipped with plenty on NON-3.2 beer

BTW, it sounds like I will hitch a ride with Rod Friday afternoon, so we'll need to plan a Friday evening dinner that extends long enough to pull in SK and Bubba when they make their fashionably late arrival in Santa Rosa.

Hey, don't leave me out of the plans! Sue F is picking up Bubba on her way over Friday eve. I have no idea about Cyndi as she is in Hawaii right now, but I'm footloose and fancy free all day Friday. As far as I know Cyndi's choices are 1) to go when we go, 2) go with SueF and Bill in the evening or 3) drive herself. Originally Posted by yellow

I'm optimistic about the ride, and as long as I don't hammer, I think (emphasize think) I could probably make the 200k. You might have to carry me around on Sunday, though. I'll need to put my tough girl attitude on. Originally Posted by SadieKate

I'll be "on vacation" so I'm going to try to make as few decisions as possible. I'm just gonna follow what everyone else does.

I'll be at registration with the sponsoring club Friday night
I'll be at the SoCo Bike Coalition table the next morning, staring at some unholy hour (6AM I"m not even sure my alarm clock will set for that early)
I'll be free around 12:30, so you may see me out on the roads, not sure what I'll be wearing though."Bicycling is a big part of the future. It has to be. There's something wrong with a society that drives a car to workout in a gym." -- Bill Nye
