    Evil Coach is riding.

    Thanks all. I'm taking my camera, just in case I can stop and smell the flowers.

    Yeah I am kind of stuck in that whole double thing. It's kind of taken over my life. BUT I'm still enjoying it, so it's okay.

    Hope the weather is good up here for the Cindy ride.

    Have a fun time! I always bring my camera, and never stop, and I always really wish I did. Then the one time I leave it home, I'll see something cool. So don't be like me!

    Here's hoping for a wonderful experience for you, V! I have no doubt that you will not only survive, but do well. Can't wait to read you post-ride adventure report.

    checking in from Solvang.... I got down here around 3 and today would be a perfect day for the double: overcast, high 60's. I am told we're up to 80 percent chance of rain tomorrow. harumph!!! I hope to meet Veronica tonight at some point!

    But I think Veronica is talking about a 1-day double. When I looked at the Solvang Double Century site it said it was a double century only, and the time limit was 15 hours.

    While I've done back to back centuries, I've never attempted a double in one day. Veronica, I'm in awe! Best wishes tomorrow... (And I'm in awe of Nanci too who has logged some amazing one-day mileage in her brevet series.)
    Wow oh wow! I'm humbled! A one day double! That's impressive!

    You better go find a virgin. Or an apfel skiever. Is that how you spell it? I haven't been to Solvang since I was a wee thing. I am so disappointed to have missed it this year.
