Tour de Palm Springs

[Fredwina]

i'm on the fence - depends on what kind of shape and what bike I want to take(and how good I can ride it)

[Aint Doody]

Hmmmmmmmmmm my inlaws are in Palm Springs for the winter and have been asking my husband and me to come down for a few days. I'll let you know if I go.

It's about time you So Cal girls got on the ball and started talking about this ride. We'll be visiting the in-laws over the hill from Palm Springs and I've been signed-up since December.

Hey Aint Doody, I think you should go to. We can be the TE Pacific Northwest representatives. You can wear your POW jersey and I'll wear my WOW jersey. I'm signed up to do the 55 miler. I hope I'll be in good enough shape. I haven't had a chance to do much riding. Only 81 miles logged for the year.

So who else is going? bikerHen

[Fredwina]

I should be there - but i'm still debating what to do and what to take - since it'll probably my first second ride on my new 'bent
Probably one of the shorter one - no century this year

[Aint Doody]

Bikerhen!! I'm going. And I will do the 55 miler, too. I decided I could happily visit the in-laws if I got to go on a ride. We get in on 2/11 and leave 2/15. Hey, maybe we can get a 25 mile practise ride in or something on the 12th or 13th! I'm excited. I'm taking my Bike Friday on its first plane ride. We are staying right downtown in Palm Springs at the Worldmark on Palm Canyon Dr. Yep, we'll be the Northwest TE'ers for sure.

And the 55 mi. route doesn't look too bad. I'll be in the same shape--only been able to ride my rollers. I'd better start adding some miles on it. We'll have fun. Come on other TE'ers!!!

I'm not riding, but my daughter and I will be doing check-in Friday 3-5 or so, she doesn't get out of school until 3 so I am sure we will be late, anyhow stop by and say hi. If you are looking for a local charity for your registration fee to go to I have to recommend the Piranha swim team. If you are in town early I would love to go on a ride Thursday or Friday but I work nights so don't get up until 10ish. Jones
