I'm in too. Probably for the 80 though. My biking didn't go as planned this spring.
Two years ago, the TE'rs went to dinner Friday night at a pizza place near the Crystal Inn. It was yummy.

Who's in?
If you are interested in meeting with other TE'rs, send me a PM and we will see if we can get something arranged for Friday evening and/or Saturday morning.
I'm in for 100!

Sorry you aren't up for the 100 - There's always another ride! Do you remember the name of the pizza place? That sounds like a great plan.
I'm in - trying for the 100 but it won't be fast. Will probably check out the dinner event the night before.
I think this was it:

I'll be there. I'm staying with Shiraz & friends, can't remember where, in Logan on Fri night. I'm planning on riding the 100 (isn't it more like 107 or something?).
I'd love to meet up for dinner. I'll drag Shiraz along, cuz, well, you know that she's not social AT ALL!![]()
Hey sounds like its going to be fun! Yellow, Flybye and I plus several other ladies will be staying at the Best Western Weston Inn on Main street in the big suite room. Since I need to get back for the family wedding I need to get an early start on Saturday and can only do the 60. I'm going for the fun. Flybye and I riding the McCammon loop today at 1230. We chatted yesterday about meeting at the park Friday first. She said she would post something in the next couple of days.
I 'll be sure to work on my social skills before next weekend!!
Anita "Shiraz"
After consulting with Shiraz (who will be my wheels for the ride to Utah)we have decided that we will meet in Bowery park at 6:00 on Friday
- You will be able to recognize us because Shiraz is beautiful and has poor social skills![]()
- I will be the one having an asthma attack. I had to bail on the ride that Shiraz and I took today because I felt like I was sucking air in through a straw. I am now experiencing the privilege of having a husband that is a pharmacist - he is researching which inhaler to ask the doctor for. Don't I feel lucky!
Anyhow, we will find a table and put a sign of some type that says TE or Team Estrogen on the center of the table. We are both very excited at the prospect of meeting other TE'rs.
Lifeisgreat, Bikedutchess, and Yellow - can't wait to see you all. Bikedutchess, will your daughter be riding with you this year?
I'm staying at the Best Western Weston with two friends. We are signed up for the 100. I'm not sure what time we will get to the park on Friday, but I will look for the TE table. I will be easy to spot. I'll be sporting several nasty bruises from today's rather spectacular mountain bike crash.(I might have to break out the spray tan stuff just to make sure I don't scare small children.)
Alex (who is shopping for new MTB tires cuz it can't be my bike handling, right?)
But will the free pasta be good? Me and Jo junior will be HUNGRY! That Firehouse place was great.
I'm bringing two galpals from Jackson. Kelsey will want to ride the metric at least, but I'm planning to be more mellow to keep my friend Cara company on her mtn bike. She thought the 36 would be all she could do, but I'm trying to talk her into 46.
We're going to drag the Airstream to a nearby campground, but it looks like I've waited a bit too long to get a rezzie at Hyrum Lake. Will call Monday.
Can't wait!

Got a postcard from the Little Red folks. An excerpt:
Friday, June 6th from 5-8 pm at Wellsville City Park: Packet and Jersey pick-up and Western Rendezvous dinner party. Free BBQ chicken, salad, ranch potatoes and three kinds of desserts are just the carbs and protein you'll need. Enjoy live music of Tangle Ridge, Utah's best western/bluegrass group! Food for the first 800 Little Red bikers in line. No RSVP needed.
I will plan on being at the park at 6 to meet TE friends and am still interested in the Firehouse food. The LRRH food sounds great, but with my food allergies, I don't know if it would be be the best thing for me to eat right before a ride.
I am at Crystal Inn. Also, do you think we need to make a reservation at the Firehouse place?

I'll be there!
I'm driving from Grand Junction, CO with 3 other gals on Friday. I'm not sure of the hotel we are staying at.
I signed up for the 100, but I'll probably only do the 50. I haven't ridden much lately. (I did get out for about 35 miles today.)
I'll be on a black Surly Pacer bike with a rack and black rack trunk.![]()

I am especially concerned about not getting enough carbs, why ride, after all, if on cannot consume enough calories to put a huge ol' smile on the face? What Shiraz and I thought we'd do was eat the free stuff at the park and then either bring stuff to eat in the room or get something from a restaurant in town or both. Shiraz, I am sure, is not as concerned about food as I am, she is small as a bird!!
I can't wait to meet everyone.
Alex, you are right. You NEED new tires. Wrecks aren't EVER our fault unless their are witnesses who call the crash "a spectacular display of courage".You will be the envy of every woman. Maybe I'll try to get some road rash between now and then, too. How are you feeling?
Cylca - Isn't your airstream named "Stella" - Seinfield?? I am thinking that would be a great name for your baby.
Surly- Will you be at the park? Glad you have company to get you though the ugly part of Utah - everything in between Arches and Provo!
Life- It couldn't hurt to make a reservation. I am glad you'll be at the park. I am also glad you aren't eating - more food for me - hehehe!!
I'll be staggering around early Saturday morning looking for coffee and friendly faces.
You take carbo loading very seriouslyI have been carbo loading for the last 10 years and have the lbs. to show for it!
Seriously, do you want me to make a reservation? If so, how many and what time? The restaurant is about 15 minutes from the park.
Cycla-I have a 1979 Airstream Land Yacht. I LOVE IT! I won't be pulling it with my Honda CRV, though since it is 31 feet long. . .
I will be in a maroon CRV with the Utah plate HILSLUG.
Remember to bring money for yard sales![]()
