Little Red Riding Hood-Utah

Do a lot of riders start LRRH early?

Thanks.

Registration opens at 7am on Saturday. (I'm leaving from my house in Sandy shortly after 5am)

So I will be there ready to ride at 7am...gotta enjoy a bit of the food.
I will meet whomever would like to ride at 7:15 in the least crowded area behind the vendor tents. I will pull out absolutely no later than 7:30.

I ride a red Specialized Allez with red and black handlebar tape. I have a blue helmet. I will try to remember to put on a TE temp tatoo somewhere on my person. Oooh, I know. I will not put my helmet on until the last minute. Look for me in this (I don't think there will be too many others there in something like this) http://www.sweatvac.com/Merchant2/me..._Code=WWStubby

If you are definitely going to meet up with me, please be sure to PM me. I don't want to leave anyone behind.

To answer someones question, I don't know how many people start early. I didn't last year and ended up in the mass of 1000+ riders who don't really know the rules of the road. So I want to avoid that this year. Well that and I need all the time I can use to get through the ride.

Yeah LRRH is just a few days away. I am sooooo excited.

I am great with directions, but can someone tell me how to get to the park in Wellsville? Maybe the name of a business that is on the park square so that I can mapquest this? I'd like to have a map to get there from my home and a map to get there from my hotel in Logan. I will have a lot on my mind and don't want to think any more than necessary ride day!!

Thanks -

Sulis - I will look for you behind the tents - now that sounds bad!!! Heehe. Don't wait past 7:30 for me though. I am a stunning tall brunette with an awesome body - oh, wait, I'd better not tell you that or you'll never recognize me I will try to post a picture or pm on to you. Cindy

There is a map on the website under the ride info. Wellsville is little. It's easy to find. There are no businesses on the square, but the park is Bowery Park.

From last year's flyer for Logan:

South on SR-91 for 8 miles to SR-101
Turn right (west) go 1/2 mile
Park is on your left

Thanks a million. I just downloaded the map. Do you know if you have to be present to win the bikes they are giving away at 7:50?

[SadieKate]

I just checked. The big sign stuck on my forehead saying "LRRH Expert" has been removed.

[Flybye]

Hehehe....I just checked and the sticker on my head still says green grass newbie. I can't read yet, so I still will be thinking of you, SadieKate, as an expert. One time there means expert, in my book!!!

I want to win a bike. Don't even think about winning it! Course, I never win anything.

I have new tubes, so watch out!
Totally changing the subject but the man at my LBS is late 50's and rides 300 miles per week WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Alex. I don't want you to feel ignored and since no one has answered your post, I, the one who has never been to Little Red, will answer your question
My response:
I have no idea

Are you coming? Or is it going? If so, what ride are you doing? Or is it riding? Sheesh, sorry, too much caffeine.

Ask me anything, anytime!!

[Lifesgreat]

Jones,

3pm shouldn't be too bad, I hope. The rush hour traffic that would affect us will be N of SLC, if there is any. That is about when I and the Mistress of Pain (my spin instructor) will be passing through SLC. We, too, are staying at the Crystal Inn. I will be wearing a light blue bead bracelet.

Hey SK, we need some AV t-shirts or something so we can find each other at pre-ride events. Like you need another clothing project

I am going to have to put on my eagle eyes to look at everyone's wrists. . .

I ride a charcoal Felt with a bumblebee saddle bag. Now I expect all of you to remember that

Ack!!!!!

Psst - I promise it will happen this time - YES, an AV jersey order.

You'll have to talk amongst yourselves until I get back from Utah. Drop dead order day is July 18 for a shipment the week of Sept 10. Velobambina has graciously agreed to take and reship this order.

Prices have gone up a couple dollars a jersey plus we don't get the 10% discount we got on the original order (which was because we took delivery after Oct 1). If no one cares, I can push the order back until Oct 1 to get the 10% but I'm guessing you want to do it earlier?

OK, I'll stop the thread hijack now. Maybe someone can resurrect the old threads so everyone will know what items are available.

Flybye,

I am signed up to do the 100 mile route. I'm coming up with a friend on Friday night after work and we're staying at the Motel 6, which used to be some other hotel. We plan to start early. I will be on a black Felt F3C with DH's Rolf Vigor wheels. My friend will be on a black and pink Ruby. On Saturday, I'll probably be wearing my long sleeve Boure Team jersey and Shebeest shorts, but I might go with my pink s/s Ride Like a Girl jersey from Terry.

I picked up my packet tonight. The jerseys are very cool! I like the t-shirt, too.

Flybye, I was wearing the tan shorts and blue T shirt at packet pickup today. I plan on wearing bike shorts and my AV jersey on ride day. I'll be hanging out with my buddy SadieKate. I'm sure you'll see us...you can't miss that jersey!

I'm doing the 100 mile. Gotta go to Whydaho.
