departure times Hey George, page 1 still says departure time for caravan 1 is 9 am. Is departure time for caravan 2 at Calexico still 2 pm? Prolly a good idea to keep page 1 updated, that way everyone can keep checking the same place for the most current info. Thanks
I feel for you, `Dude. I spent my 2-week summer vacation in Idaho hobbling around the campsite on crutches and in a wheelchair while everyone else went out riding on some of the sweetest singletrack on earth. Sitting by the campfire at night listening to the stories hurt more than all the metal in my ankle, for sure. Keep your eyes on the prize and you'll be back in the saddle before you know it WoodsChick
WoodsChick - could you update post #1? I'm not sure Mike will be able to get to a computer tonight and I'm not following all the details too close.
FYI, F2G and I are prepping to launch between midnight and 0100 Thursday like we discussed earlier. Will be making a short stop in Vancouver, WA for "stuff" and continuing the southbound trek for link-up 1100-1330. BBBRRRRAAAAAPPPPP
Main reason for 07:00 is to get to Calexico to go across at around 12:00 for first group also thoes who are their. Later George
Current plan for the northern people: Ion Eater & fitness2go will call me mid morning (I've got their cell #s), and if things go well will hook up with the SF Bay area group at my house about 1PM. I or someone else that has not driven all night can drive their vehicle while they sleep. Then 2 vehicles can caravan down to so cal & all spend night at the so cal location.
Done! And, yes, Caravan #2 will depart Calexico at 2pm sharp. Don't be late, either, `cuz I got a hot date with an adult beverage in San Felipe before the sun goes down ExcitedChick
It appears to be pouring rain at this moment where we are going. Much harder than the rain north of the golden gate bridge we got yesterday. http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/sgx/
I am working right now...and can't stop thing about this. My dad and friend are on their way down here and are staying the night, and we are leaving tomorrow morning. CANT WAIT!!!
George, or anybody riding down with Mike, please give me a call when Mike is ready to leave from George's shop. Mike's picking me up in Oceanside on the way South but I'm not sure if he'll be here at 11am as planned or perhaps earlier as some are leaving from George's at 7am. This morning I realized I've got Mike's home # and not his current cell and of course he's not at home Blake called and gave me Mike's new number, thanks Blake! Thanks, Brett
hey.. If you want to track me (and the group) in Baja check out http://bcvisin.com to get the link to my SPOT (only link on the page). I'll turn it on on my way down there.
Hope everyone has a great ride. Unfortunately due to some unavoidable bs I wont be able to make this one. DAMN.!! Have a few adult beverages for me !
Ya!!! Now I'll can almost be there...without leaving my couch. Think of the money I just saved. Thanx BCVisin . What a Great Idea.(Update)This is so real we should make this into a "Sticky" Someone (who is also familiar with "Google Earth") and is gonna run a GPS should do so. That way us losers can watch it in 3D. Just a suggestion
Up-tites first group just left, 2 guys came in from Conneticut and are following me down. Paramedics from Santa Barbra I have the gas tank with me also the brake pedal. See ya in San Felipe. Later George
