I'm very excited! They still need about 100 volunteers still in Santa Rosa and I can't t decide if I want to help out or ride aound. If I volunteer, they need course marshalls, so I'll get a great view, on the bad side, if I'm a course marshall, I'll only get one view. Probably one of the best side-effects of a stage ending here in Santa Rosa is that the PD is actually covering cycling in the paper!

I signed up to help, but haven't heard anything back. Anyone know who to contact to actually figure out what is going on? I live in Santa Rosa, and actually have that day off from school. Thanxxx

Wow!
All these Santa Rosa girls! Where were you hiding when I lived there??! Actually I lived up in Windsor, but I grew up in Sebastopol. I think it's really cool. I actually got a chance to speak w/Levi once when I was out on a traning run and he was super cool. I have to figure some way to get OLN by this summer for the tdf. Stoopid Dish network pulled that channel. argh!
Anyway, yeah I think it's super cool. If I could figure out a way to be there I would. You never know....

Unfortunately it has been banished to ESPN2 with the bass fishing and ultimate obstacle course shows and is on at the god-awful time of 1am or 2am in the morning east coast time depending on the stage. I'm glad I have Tivo.....

woo-hoo !!!!!
CSC is going to participate !
http://www.csc.com/mms/cycling/en/ne...il.jsp?id=1704
"Among the Team CSC riders scheduled to compete in the event are
Americans Bobby Julich, a bronze medal winner in the 2004 Olympics and Christian Vande Velde. David Zabriskie, an early leader in the 2005 Tour de France and one of only three Americans to wear that event's prestigious yellow leader's jersey, also will compete for Team CSC."
Ah, life is good
Now I need to figure out how many days I can manage to take off that week.
