Ok I am completely offended - SBCTwin was the only one that said hi to me tonight at the packet pickup. Alex, yellow? No hello - I feel slighted. Ok, just kidding. I was crazy busy. But how smooth and easy was that packet pickup- right?
I looooove my jersey. I was feeling guilty about spending the money to get the LRRH jersey but am so in love with it.
Just a few stats I found out last night - there were over 1500 women pre-registered. So with late registration and day ofs they expect to easily soar past the 2,000 rider mark
The Orbea and Specialized being given away are gorgeous. I desperately need a new bike (my frame is too big for me) so if you ladies with your lovely bikes will all take pity allow me just to win either/or, I would thank you. ha ha ha
Alright, all you travelers. Drive safely and look forward to seeing you.
Oh and not to put a damper on the blue wrist band thingy - but the Huntsman Cancer Institute has given the blue rubbery wrist bands in the packets...so you may see lots of people wearing a blue rubber wrist band who have never heard of our glorious TE.

I will be in my AV jersey and hopefully out on the road early. Remember the bumblebee saddle bag!

Have a great time, everyone !
Sorry I can't be there, but with all the travelling I did in the last week or so, taking off again this weekend was just a bit much.
Hope y'all have photos to share.

No bracelets.....
Okay we have to come up with something else. No blue bracelets- I think that there is a mole from the Huntsmans Institiute on this thread
How about red? Can we make red work in a pinch?
That's the plan! Red bracelet.
I will also grab some poster board and write team estrogen on it and hang out like a chauffeur at the airport if I get the time.
Jobob- we will miss you- enjoy a little r&r.
What the heck is an AV jersey???????
Alex - welcome. There are several doing 100 miles.
Lot's to do today!!!!!

I guess I missed that you would be working it. I just got my packets and ran off. Had the dogs in the car and needed to go pick up the rest of my gear from the White Rim trip at my friend's house. Yes, it was nice to be able to get everything yesterday and not deal with the madness Sat am.

Is anyone coming back to SLC to hang out after the ride? Or are you all going home? I'm thinking a trip to Red Rock or Squatters or something might be in order if anyone will be around!

Sorry, Sulis. I didn't know you were working at check-in, or I would certainly have said hello. I was there about 8:30 and no one was in line! I zipped in and zipped out.

The most effective way to do it, is to do it.

No worries yellow and Alex - I was only teasing. For all we know, I was the one that helped you! Originally Posted by Alex

Definitely not, unless you've aged about 30 years! (Not that aging is a bad thing, but the wonderful woman that helped me was most definitely not you!) Originally Posted by sulis

Oh! And if I win the bike we can discuss barter arrangements.

I am sitting in the lobby of the Crystal Inn so I will make this brief. Went to packet pick up today in Wellsville, haven't been on the computer since Thursday so just found out when I got to Wellsville about the bracelet thing. Didn't see anyone even vaguely familier.
Sulis- I will try to find you in the AM. The most outlying tent seemed to be the LRRH boutique so I will look there. There is no need to reply to this message as I won't be able to check again until after the ride.
Hope to see many of you there.
Jones
PS sorry no spell check
