    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?

    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.

    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! )

    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.

    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.

    Hi everyone!

    I just got back from a ten day vacation. We arrived safely home last night just before midnight. Hubby did not want to spend another night in a hotel/motel room. We drove for 14 hours across Montana, Idaho, and finally Washington! Plus, I was computerless for ten entire days! Actually it was nice and relaxing and FUN!

    So, a Flaming Geyser ride on the Sunday the 19th?! Dang but I won't be able to come. I already have a scheduled ride that day with some friends. We planned this weeks ago!

    Sigh, my timing is always off. You'll have to fill me in with all the details. Ok, I'm off now to read all my email from the last ten days. Plus I want to catch up on all the postings and do laundry and clean . . . it's going to be a long day!

    Unhappy Out of town for a while

    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.
