I forgot--also I met Thorn, but I didn't know she was Thorn until after I spent a week riding with her.
Yesterday I got to meet and hang out with V, and hubbie Thom in Yarmouth, ME! They are here on vaca, and came out to the Yarmouth Clam Festival to watch DH and I race. Then we all went to lunch afterwards. Very fun!
I love meeting TE people.

It was an awesome day! The race was fun to watch, chatting with Shefly and her honey was great and I got a lobster roll for lunch. Oh and the carrot cake for dessert was really good too.

PS We have some great pictures from the race. They will for sure be up by next week when we get home.
V, I was in Maine just the week before! I just missed you guys! I actually got back home on the 20th, wee hours. I recall my cousin was talking about the Clam Fest coming up too (they were making plans to avoid it, actually, because of the traffic).
Hope you had fun -- sounds like it was a good day out with SheFly & DH, and after having one in Freeport, I now have a "thing" for lobster rolls.

Hopefully you will come when summer finally decides to arrive in New England - it hasn't yet. Sunny today, but that's a rarity for us right now!
Our races are at 9:00 am on the 19th (Sunday). It's a totally fun scene in Yarmouth with the bike races, craft fair, rides, fried food as far as you can see...
Here's a link. I do hope you can make it - would be fun to meet you and Thom in person!

It's been added to our schedule of events. I'll PM you my cell so we can hook up after the race. Maybe Thom will even get some pictures.

7 - that I can remember .... although the total kept increasing while I was reading all the other posts and more came to mind.
Perhaps we'll have to revisit this thread next year at this time and see how much higher everyone's total has grown.
One more (and I'm pretty sure this is it)...Margo (lunacycles) when I bought my bike from her.
A big fat ZERO! (But I have met an honorary member, aka husband, as Mr. Silver calls them.)

...and we met Mr. HoosierGiant when he recognized us from TE pictures and came up to us after the Hilly Hundred...
It's an strange moment when someone comes up to you and says "Are you Mr. Silver?"
Great guy! We even met for lunch a few months ago.
While vacationing in Maine, we rode by SheFly's "other" home...does that count?
