I got my confirmation card, too. I knew I was in however, because they had cashed my check.
I'm riding with three non-TE friends. This is the fourth Cindy for us together. Not sure when we'll get started in the morning. We're staying at the Holiday Inn Express Friday night and riding over to the start from there. Assuming TE has a tent at the expo, that would be a good place to meet up to say hello, either before or after the ride. We'll be the ones with tiaras (us and a few hundred others)
Keep your fingers crossed the weather gods smile down on us this year.
