yep, when I was doing my taxes this year i read that entertainment to fund raise for a non profit is tax deductable....I considered a house party...but I'd have to clean my house.

Trek 420

[that's fabulous! where and when is that?]

It's this weekend! I am soo excited. It's a 3 day event (50 miles per day),we ride in upper Illinois and lower Wisconsin. We even get to stay at the Abbey Resort in Lake Geneva (right off the lake), and there are tennis courts, swimming pools, and whirlpools to relax in after the rides! It's my first organized group ride (so I'm a tad bit nervous), I'll let you know how it goes!

LifeCycle gals, I'll be working tent assignment on Saturday - see you then!

Too cool! See you there then. And thanks for crewing 8-)

BG & I want a tent with a view, not too close to but not too far away from the porta potties, ok?

Dropped the bike off at the shop for a last minute check up, they'll replace the rear tire, do all the usual stuff, switch my bottle cages (the one I use all the time is just right, the back one is tight only because less use, within a drink or two it'll even out) they loaned me several spare spokes, if I don't need 'em just bring 'em back, if I do pop a spoke I've got 'em...

I've promised several people who say the'll look for me day 0 that I'll wear my pink Velogirls bike vest.

Well, back to packing for the ride.

Bike Goddess and I plan on getting together for dinner Thursday evening in Rockridge to finalize plans like tent decor, tent furnishings, matching place settings etc. If any of ya are in the area PM us for details and such, if not...when we get back.
