    Aw, so sorry you won't be able to do the ride after all. Could you manage the 50 if the ticket doesn't sell? I know you've gone through a lot lately with your house sale. I hate that some events sell out so quickly and early that you never know if "life events" will intervene!

    There's always next year! I will probably try again. There are 300+ people on the wait list after the registration snafus this year, so I'm hopeful someone will want it.

    I could do the 50 (did it last year), but it will be a long hard day. DH is ready to ride and doing the 100 for the 3rd year. I think my head isn't really in it right now (want to build back up gradually and recover from moving - still unpacking). I'm thinking a nice ride along the river sounds much better than that much climbing right about now.
    Most days in life don't stand out, But life's about those days that will...

    I totally understand. I know how hilly that area is, and this time of year can be very hot. Your DH is like mine -- in fantastic shape!

    The ticket has a new home - with someone who has always wanted to do the ride Took 14 minutes from the time my DH sent an email to the bike list at his workplace.

    I'll probably try again next year!

    Glad you were able to sell the ticket! Maybe next year, right?
