Hi MP, just checking, is this still the plan?

[maillotpois]

If the silly lung doctor would ever get back to me about the lovely radioactive lung scan I had last week, I'd be happier - but yes, I am still planning to ride based on what he said before the scan. I'll just be slooooooow!

However, I need to get a CPR class in and didn't realize that the FD set it for that morning, so the actual ride time needs to be later in the day (like 1-ish) - or the next day, 1/7. What do people think?? It may be warmer in the afternoon - or we can wait til we get closer and see which day it is less likely to rain.

You mean I could keep up with you for once? Excellent

Sunday the 7th works for me as well.

I do hope mimosas are still part of the plan ...

Whassa plan?

[maillotpois]

I believe the consensus is to do it 1/7. I will start a new post w/revised date and details. our internet still isn't working though our power's back after 3 days which is good enough for me!!

EDIT - duh it is the 6th. I need to confirm when cpr class is over and will get start time and details. at least starting later will allow things to warm up. it was 35 in samuel p taylor park today.

maillotpois I need to confirm when cpr class is over and will get start time and details.

I knew you'd been off the bike but do we all need cpr? Maybe for me because I will be in the back.

trek - you're funny!!!

Here's da plan:

saturday 1/6. meet at 12:30, to roll at 1. should be warmer by then.

meet: mill valley middle school. (take hwy 101 to tiburon blvd./e. blithedale - turn west toward mill valley. at 3rd light (camino alto) go LEFT. at next light (sycamore) go LEFT. park at lot on left at end of rd.)

route: 55 miles w/plenty of ways to make shorter or longer. mostly rollers w/ a couple of actual climbs. as my HR is to be below a certain # I go 3 mph on most of the climbs. so there.

food: route takes you by organic ice cream, coffee houses, possibly a bakery or 2.

maps: I will throw something together.

rain: well, if its super nasty we may skip to the champagne part of the ride early.

after ride: stop by my house for champagne and snacks of some sort. (dont get your hopes up on the food. my strength is the beverage part.)

bonus: if anyone does keel over, I will just have been recertified in cpr and may actually remember it's "x" number of compressions to "x" number of breaths, etc....

If this sinus infection I got for Christmas has cleared up by then I would love to join you guys too. Haven't seen some of you (Jo and Trek) in a while, and have wanted to meet the rest of you! I should know by mid-week if it is a go. Also, any south bay folks want to car pool? I would be willing to meet somewhere. Let me know.

This sounds like fun, and I'd like to join you, but will let you know for certain a few days before. I haven't ridden 50 miles in a while, but I know that I can. (I'm from the San Mateo area.)

P.S. Is there a SAG vehicle?

[jobob]

me: "Hey Lee, looks like Sarah's ride is on for next Saturday. We'll be riding in Marin again!"

Lee: "Will it be as hard as todays ride?"

me: "I don't think so ... "

Lee: "OK, fine with me!"

I for one was sold at the organic ice cream, coffee houses and bakeries...

[winddance]

I'd love to join you guys, but would anyone want to do less than the 55 miles with me? I haven't ridden that far in a few months. I could probably do it, but I wouldn't say for sure right now that I'd be very happy about it. I could hold us a table at the ice cream place.

The good news is that it looks like it should be sunny...
