    Mad? You in?

    I looked at the three sites and if I looked correctly it appears that Butts is the best deal.
    Mebbe I'll give them a second look to make sure.
    Anyone else look at them yet?

    Yay.
    Not going to CT until late in the month, for an extra long holiday weekend (Labor Day).
    So, any of these weekends should work for us.
    Is this an afternoon thing, or a morning thing? Preferences (p.m. for me)?

    I don't think we've gotten that far yet, but I'd say meeting in late morning or noonish would be good. Don't want to get up and rush about on a Sunday morning.

    It looks like we've got a quorum, so we need to pick between August 3 and 10. Doesn't matter to me, so I'll let someone who cares speak up.

    Since I can't remember if I made myself work-available for the 3rd, I pick the 10th.

    I don't think the time choice is up to us, it's up to the outfitters.

    I looked at the sites a bit more, Butt's is expensive, River & Trail Outfitters includes shuttle and life vest but only lasts 2 1/2 hours.

    River Riders-
    21 or 26$$$ for Shenandoah flatwater
    21 or 26$$$for Potomac whitewater (price depends on tube type)
    or 39$$$ for an all day combo of both (deluxe no-rash tube)

    What's a "no-rash" tube?
    "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."
    David Desautels, in a letter to velonews.com

    Random babblings and some stuff to look at.

    A tube that doesn't give you a rash

    EVERYONE please look at the links that DB provided, we need to get our shot together. There are differences as far as the type of trips they provide and start times.
    Then we have to figger out carpooling.

    Then you can pick out your cute little outfits

    I would lean toward whitewater tubing with either River and Trail or Butts. But I can be content with floating along on flat water also.
