    I'm not picky, though not a big fan of most lite beers..
    And not a big fan of the sweet stuff - whatever you normally consume would be fine, seriously don't put any effort into it.

    I'll bring up some fire wood (trying to get rid of it).. best guess camping Thursday through Saturday (3 nights). Probably spend Wed night in Eugene/Salem/Bend area. I would like to check out Bills, atomic moto, and possibly Giant loop.

    The district rep just re-confirmed Kris will be there, though I've not heard from Kris himself. Just thought I would post an update....

    And it would still be great to get a decent photo person..

    I will bring my good camera, my good lens is an expensive paper weight now so my cheap lenses will have to do.

    I am really not a people photographer, but I will do what I can.

    You are too quick, I walked out to find my tripod and you beat me to it.

    Our troop won't be getting in until late Friday. So a Saturday morning photo op would be a good time and some of us will still be in one piece.

    I get lost all the time. And that's part of the experience IMO :cheers:

    I have access to some nice Canon lenses, but dont have a sports camera though. Does anyone have a legitimate action based body?
    If so, I've got the glass.

    What I am thinking of is a stationary person and people riding by a few times, so if you are coming bring what you have. No need to take the expensive camera equipment on uber tough rides where it might get damaged.
    If you are coming up, please do bring the equipment. :cheers:

    :D

    I will also bring my camera, D50 with long VR lens (which does not always work), Sigma ultra wide lens, and cheapie plastic lens for the middle range shots. My thought was to have several people taking pictures but am completely open to ideas.

    On the trail a good little point and shoot works fine. No need to bust up good stuff if you are not getting
    paid for it. I shoot 8 FPS D-2H with hand held 2.8 lenses, small files, quick to manage. The Nikons I have
    are rugged as my Huskys.

    There is probably another tidbit that may be of interest..

    The District rep is an extremely nice guy named Jason Dahners, and after a bit of digging it seems he may know how to ride a bike (ISDE)... I hope someone can keep up with him, because I certainly can't...

    hmm... Jake maybe? I've no idea who can ride fast. :confused:
