Can someone give a general overview of the Lamar Baptist Church option?  Cost, what is provided, what is not, is it possible to sleep, etc?  Thanks.

no cost, but a donation is appreciated.  For that price you get a piece of gym floor to sleep on and showers and bathrooms.  I always take a lunesta, mostly to avoid Bud's snoring.   Smiley
 
They have a microwave and such for meals, and you can keep your bike in the gym with you.  It's two miles from the start so we all ride there together in the AM.

Bring earplugs, because the bathroom door BOOMS whenever anyone goes in there, and I'd even suggest an eye mask to block out the light from the emergency exit signs...  Beyond that, it's free, comfortable, and very convenient!!!

Greg, that ain't Bud's snoring you're trying to avoid. You need to upgrade your personal protective equipment.

Smiley  3 am?!  No wonder you didn't finish last year!  Call me a glutton for punishment but I'm game.  Will there be any carpooling going on?  Hint Hint....

Actually I feel I didn't finish because I didn't do the usual and get up at 3:00 a.m. The mandatory breakfast stop at the IHOP at Mckinney was what I missed the most.
 
I am always open to car pooling.

I just sent an email to susan@lbcwf.org with all the pertinent info requested on the form and she emailed me right back that I had a spot.
 
I am going to sign up for the 100K since I haven't been riding much.  My rack will hold another bike for a like-minded rider.  I am taking Friday off and going up in the afternoon probably to mill around some.

Thanks Bud.  I registered for the ride today as an individual but put "RBENT" as the group like  Huh (oops, forgot).  Anywho, I emailed the church and I'm just waiting for confirmation.  Tim, I might check with you closer to the ride and see if anyone's called shotgun yet.  I just hope I can get this Vision together so I can train on it.  I'm trying to get a hold of a guy whose selling a set of rotor cranks.  Now if I just had a bottom bracket to install 'em on. Tongue
 
Update: Got an email back from the church and I'm good to go!

I just spoke to Susan and I have my piece of gym floor  Smiley Smiley
Now all I have to do is get there and survive the heat. I had a great time last year. This time I am riding on Marathon tires with Kevlar®Guard so I and my CG are good to go.
