I'd be up for an in-between'er ride with a leisurely paddle the following day. I'll try to remember to call on Monday about the different routes.
Man, I'm gonna be keeping the pet sitter busy this year, too![]()

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

Random babblings and some stuff to look at.
The ride is on Sunday.
I was sort of envisioning paddling on Saturday, biking Sunday.
Would you be able to pull rank and do that, Tam, or are you thinking a Sunday bike - Monday paddle sort of thing? Or...multisport! Bike in the a.m., paddle in the afternoon!!
RE: Four Routes...I'm guessing 10, 25, 40 or 45, and the metric.
And c'mon.....let's shoot for the metric. It's flat, and it'll be a motivating challenge to be fit enough for it by the end of April. Janice...I'm not worried about, as you'll have plenty of time in the saddle by then. It's the rest of us!Well, except Velobambina, too!

oh well, that'll teach me to wait too long. i just emailed my sister to see if she was up for this. we'll have to move faster next year, any description of a ride that says "flat" has my interest. :-)
Wow, that sure filled up fast! I'm glad LadyinWhite mentioned it!
I just made a reservation at the Holiday Inn for April 26, just to be sure I've got a room. If withm finds a better hotel, I can always change it. (They charge $95 for a room that you can't cancel, and $99 for one that you can cancel up to 6pm on the day of arrival. Wouldn't everyone preserve the cancellation option since it only costs $4 more???)
This should be a fun ride.
Gee now I wish I had gone over there yesterday as originally planned.... Want to figure out kayaking options and which motels are decent biking into Blackwater though we might want cars to put goodie bags and stuff at while we are riding.
Wonder if they arranged a group rate with any of the motels for participants of this event?
