YES!!!! I remember that control and I remember you and Jan and Audun there looking freezing and soaked. I also remember that you guys had all these great boxes of food--chocolate chip cookies, other good stuff--and that we were so drenched and chilly that we stopped for two seconds and then just kept rolling. That is the wettest ride I've ever done, and around here that's saying something! I felt for all the volunteers at the controls, since at least we could keep moving--although I have to say even though we were moving, that was a really cold ride. By the time we came around the end of Lake Washington Blvd., there were huge lakes of water right in the road and I just started to laugh--got drenched right up to the knees. I still remember the secret control in the Arboretum, too--those guys had no cover either. Definitely a canopy is needed for the volunteers?

How's Auđunn doing now?

You know...there's a 1000k in a couple of weeks he could do, if he really wants to get into PBP....would be fun to have you guys there. PBP is a huge pageant and hearing the riders talk about being cheered on by the cycle-loving French is just amazing. And we are actually planning to go back to Iceland for a week, after PBP, and want some of his advice about his most loved places there.

I don't do the longer rides. But I like the rando community a lot. Good folks.

I know this is WAY off the RSVP topic now. Sorry, guys!
