Is anyone carpooling or do we just try and find a parking space amongst the masses? I have Friday the 24 off and can travel up that day. Any suggestions? I'm staying at the church where Paul and several others are staying.

Was planning on heading up there Friday morning and wandering the trade show that afternoon. Your more than welcome to ride up with me. I am however overnighting in Lawton Friday night. Give Vicky or I a call and we'll figure out the details. Semper Fi

It may not be convenient, but I was riding a bicycle to the start line anyway. I've had more trouble finding my car after the ride.

Hey bent-friends,
I've done HHH a few times a long time ago, before discovering bent riding. Should be a lot more comfortable. Is there going to be a group from the Metroplex? Bents and Tand's are starting at the bridge. I'm not sure if that's good or not. What ya think? I'd like to go if there are going to be some from here, like Bud. I've got lodging taken care of.

What, is that the less than 6 hours pace group? I'm going to find out if my friend-non-bent rider is going before I decide for sure. I guess I better decide by Sunday as on-line regis. closes then.

I would really like to get to know other bent riders. Bud is the first one I've had an opportunity to ride with. I can't keep up with him, of course. I'll be looking for events in the Metroplex to ride with the group. Maybe I'll see you at something, if not HHH.

Come on out - there will be a lot of us that will be there and have not yet admitted it yet - like me. Though I have never ridden with him - I know I can't keep up with Bud either (in miles or pace). I'm going to be riding the 100k on my Corsa at an avg somewhere between a snails pace and 19 mph. I guess I'll find out once it is over but I intend (at least now) to not work too hard. That is subject to change once I see the DF pacelines to chase.
