Duck, will you check if your phone that I'm going to borrow works with that wind up charger? I'll be sending a short text every day just as a brief update, but only if I have enough battery. If battery power is limited, I think messages to BF will have priority. Sorry.

Getting a bit nervous about this ride now. Nervous and excited. Only 3 weeks to go!! So much training I should have done! I had better head out now on another ride and try not to panic too much.

This means your Dad has the wind-up charger? I'll check if it works with my US phone. Even if not, the phone keeps a charge for a week if you're only sending a couple of messages a day.

wind up chargers: unlike your house chargers which would need to be compatible with US electrical stuff or have the adapter for European, the wind up chargers only need to be compatible with make and model of phone.

This needs to go in the Dear So and So thread but:

Dear Cell Phone Manufacturers,

Do you think that making unique systems so that Nokia chargers don't work on Motorola phones which can't plug into Ericson ear buds which....makes us loyal to your equipment? Noooooo, we're frustrated that we gotta get new stuff and at all the tossing the old into land fill.

C'mon, just make it all work together.

So basicly if the wind up charger has a _____ plug in and she has a _____ phone it should work.

But fully charging the phone the night before the ride and leaving it off unless in use, it's always lasted the week.

Tylenol gel caps....check!
Tiger balm .... check!
Calcium/Magnesium pills (I'll try 'em, thanks TE for the idea) .... check!
OMG I don't have a thing to wear on Red Dress Day....perhaps this?

As for the Hill Slug jersey, it's the only one I see with the Team Estrogen logo .... on the back. Susan?

you'll be able to watch the ride online, there'll be a "webcast" with pictures uploaded daily.
Day 1 I dunno what I'll wear but likely the AV vest over it all.
Day 2 I'll be in a Training Ride Leader jersey, probably still have AV vest on
Day 3 I'll be with my corporate team, look for an AT&T jersey
Day 4 oh, I dunno what I'll wear
Day5 I think is red dress day. Team Estrogen Hill Slug jersey
Day 6 Velo Girls Pink
Oh, who knows what I'll ride in on day 7 in....probably the AV vest over whatever it is
