Supported TE ride to flaming geiser Aug 19th

[mimitabby]

Mimi, let me know what we can bring!!

your bike? water?

[teigyr]

your bike? water?

Yes, that is practical and necessary Don't know. Was thinking along the lines of appetizers, wine, and flowers? Or anything else you need? A side dish, perhaps?

[mimitabby]

silly, that's the whole point of a supported ride. YOu bring your good company.
He won't be bringing wine though; that I can guarantee.
More like a picnic lunch and lots of cool water and non alcoholic beverages!
and a ride home for anyone who can't quite ride the whole way.

This sounds so great!

Starfish, I hope you'll come.

Starfish, I hope you'll come.

Thanks! When I get home from Shasta next Tuesday night, I have about 3 days to finish moving out of the house, which has sold. Then, that Monday, I start a new job. It seems like everything is just all changing at once, and has been for the past couple of years, believe it or not.

So, the ride sounds awesome!! I am just going to play it by ear, though, to make sure I'm not overloading myself, as I can tend to do. Our traffic has gotten so bad, also, that what used to be a 2 hour trip to Seattle is now about 3, and on summer weekends, can easily be 4 or more.

I have to admit, though, that a nice, fun, social, supported, flat-ish ride while making new friends might be really nourishing!

Sounds perfect!! And no, we do not need wine. I'm ungraceful enough as it is

Hey, at least you didn't say "unbalanced!" (That has kind of been me, this week, but I seem to be pulling myself together! )

[Xrayted]

Gawd, I hope I get on this new shift soon. I really want to come up for this ride. TE rides are always loads of fun.

[East Hill]

I know I've enjoyed the few I've managed to catch .

I think I will be able to entice Mr. East Hill on the ride, also. Unless he would rather be a SAG person as well. I don't think most of us will have problems with the length of the ride, and it's not overly hilly (there are a few hills, but nothing gruesome). Heat could be a concern, though, so I think lots of water/replacement fluids.

So sorry, I won't be riding for a while. Went on last long training ride yesterday (80 some miles) for RSVP. This a.m. early got message that Mr. Stellar's mother is very ill so must be out of town for about 10 days. Hope to ride with some of you at a later date.

what's with all you stars? Stellar and Starfish won't be making it.

I'm sorry, I am looking forward to meeting you. I hope your M-i-L feels better soon.
