I'm getting up at 4:30 am so I can get ready, get coffee, and meet my friendly carpool so we arrive by 7am. I'm not in great shape but I am still very much looking forward to it!Originally Posted by SadieKate

It's discouraging to hear there are pot holes, but I should know better than to think there wouldn't be any. Our roads are not in very good shape. I was going to get a new road bike for this ride, but now I'll just ride my old hybrid even if it takes me all day to finish. I signed up for the metric century, but may back up to the 35er. As the time draws nearer, I get wimpier.![]()

CindySue - Tsk Tsk Tsk! Looking things up in the dictionary may LOOK like thesis work to the casual observer, but it does not fool us! Back to work, young lady!Originally Posted by cindysue

We'll (the Benicia Bike Club) probably get there around 6:30ish. Some of us will be wearing argyle socks (red and yellow) so you can't miss us. That is, of course, if it's cold that morning. So if you see those socks be sure to say something! Most of us will be doing the double metric. I'll see how I feel at the lunch break as to whether I'll do the last loop off the century to get those extra miles in!
Looking forward to this ride.![]()

Is it some plan hatched during happy hour?
Registration has closed. OK. Some reason why all the links to ride day info have been removed? Fortunately, I printed off some of the stuff but not the map to the Luther Burbank Center. So, now I have to go off and google this. Not a big deal, but I hope there isn't some other tidbit of info I'm missing.

I've emailed our webmaster and hope to have a link or the info back up soon. Let me know if you need info, I may have it in my head.
Deanna? MP?
Do I have the right place?
DELETING MY LINK SO I DON'T CONFOOZE ANYONE.
Stuff I printed out says check-in 6-7 am. Wish I could check in the night before but the Wonder Poodle hates being abandoned all night.

Thanks, Deana. I understand removing all links to registration but not to the info.
