I won't be able to join you guys on Sunday - I've got a full day of non-cycling activities planned, and since almost all of Saturday will be getting down to Monterey, riding and getting back...
I do wnat to try the Mt D thing again, from the south, maybe in mid sept? A few friends of mine want to do it too - we (or at least I) won't be at your speed for a while yet! Have a good time!
