Yeah, there will be a good turnout of rbenters, like always. I survived a 75 mile ride yesterday, so I think my shoulder will be up to the 100 miles. DJ and I are heading down at noon, Friday. I have my first shoulder rehab appointment that morning at 9:30, but I'm thinking I should be finished with that and home in time for the noon takeoff.

I'll be doing that same ride.  I'll be on a blue RANS Stratus XP with an orange Aerotrunk on the back.  I'll be in a HHH shirt.

OK guys,  
Thanks for getting back to me.  I ride an old yellow Bacchetta Corsa and will be wearing a generic red jersey, blue helmet. Smiley

Bud, glad you hear your shoulder is better.  If you can ride 75 mi with it then you are one tough customer, but we all already knew that!  Hope your rehab appt. goes well.  Had a lot of rehab therapy myself, mostly on back and neck, hence I'm riding an rbent.  Great alternative to sitting on your can getting fat(ter).  
See you there.

Guys,
I'm driving my new RVan which has room for a couple more guys and bikes.  Don't have any more space for sleeping unless you want to bring a cot or sleep on the ground under my awning.  Hope I can get a RV spot with hook-ups would be great.  If not, it's still OK.  I have one friend with me, a wedgie rider.  He just finished RAGBREA (sp?), so he a good rider and a great friend.  Be glad to have other riders though.

If you show up on Friday most all the RV spots but you might be able to squeeze in somewhere. bring extra water hose and if you have a extension cord bring that to. I took a Pop Up camper a couple years ago and barely found me a spot.  that was on a friday. Good luck.

Oh........ everyone that is going, try to wear your RBENT jersey if you have one - it will be very cool to see all those red, white & blue jersey's up at the front.

I used my Fathers Day money to get a HHH shirt, and so I'll be wearing that..

yea, I called and they say the RV spots are ususally taken by Thursday.  I can't go that early so I made reservations 6 mi. down the road at Coyote Ranch RV park. Wasn't free, but not too much.  not sure if I can dirve it to the staging area or not.  Its 24 ft. long. May be hard to find two spots end to end.  Any thoughts on that by anyone?  I haven't been there in 20 years.  They say the have mapped a back road route from the RV park to the staging area that is a little over 6 mi if I want to ride up there.  May do that.  Guess I better take my lights for that.
 
I'm open to any other suggestions and comments (well, the friendly kind anyway). Smiley

Looking forward to good conversation with Bud riding along up to WF.  I'd like to wear the RBENT jersey but may favor my Marine Corps one instead (for the benefit of the Air Force folks, I know they'll love it).  Grin

I might have to break out my Marine jersey also...  We could team up and steal all the Air Forces beer and girls.   Smiley  Smiley
