    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 :thumbsup:

    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,

    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 :cheers:

    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.

    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

    Ya!!!:thumbsup:
    Now I'll can almost be there...without leaving my couch.:lol:
    Think of the money I just saved.:D

    Thanx BCVisin . What a Great Idea.:notworthy:(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.:excuseme:
    Just a suggestion
