Waaaa. I am supposed to be doing a practice self-supported bike tour up to Copper Harbor (maybe 40 miles away). My first ever, so this is to be the shake-down event. However, I'm sick, and this morning my lungs feel like they are about 1/3 full of crud. Again I say WAAAAAAAAA! If I don't feel better than this, I'll never make it. We'll see - I'm proceeding as though it's going to happen, because if I'm not ready tomorrow but I'm feeling better, I'll kick myself. Not sure about the whole sleeping on the ground in 40-ish nighttime temps, though. Fortunately, I had planned to take a vacation day today, to get ready. Maybe by the time I finish my tea and take a shower things will be better. Or maybe I'll just ride up in the car with DH, who doesn't have a touring bike (yet), hang out with our friends, and come home.

Sounds like you guys have some great plans (well, sorry Veronica - that doesn't sound like extreme fun, but it does remind me of all my Memorial Day weekends growing up on a farm ).

Have a great time, everybody! Watch yourself, Zen - I hear he's trouble.
