Have fun!
LOL. Yes, I'm sure it's the same hill. I haven't fallen over yet. Sometime in the next two weeks I'm going to do another practice run up that particular hill, just to make sure.

You're right that I should have plenty of time to let people know I need some space. I'm unsure about how many people will actually be at said hill at the same time as me. The ride has something like 3000 riders, and I should be in the middle somewhere.
