Sorry, um, which day would this be?

sounds fun- I'll be there if my schedule allows

Kathy and Lynn picked the date.

That's the White Rock (Dallas) Marathon that morning, so I'll be handing out Clif shots -- but I could get there a bit late...   Thanks for hosting!!!!  Sounds great, although I probably can't get there till 1PM...

Thanks John.  It's on our calendar.

My wife has talked me into going to Sonny Bryan's Barbecue for the Clown Christmas party. So I could use a headcount so I know how much to but.  
 
So far I count 14 people coming. Anybody else?

John you can ADD me, I'm going to be able to come home friday afterall..
 

You know I have a 4-5 hour time period I can schedule anything, that said put me down and I will be there if possible. Thanks Ken J.

I'm planning to come, too, John.

I should be there by 12:30...

Its just water .. you won't melt,and you'll have bike riding stories to tell your grandkids ..    "The day I road in the rain with a bunch of other lawn-chair riding crazies and --- happened"   Bob F. and I could tell stories about going down the side of a hill  in the pouring rain, while riding a couple of  Vision USS R45s sliding all over the road, covering multiple lanes in what only could be called "Drunken S Turns"  and somehow getting to the bottom of the mile or so 3% drop while remaining upright.    You don't get stories like that by hiding indoors  from the weather. no-sir!  .. of course you don't have the dreams you wake screaming from either as your subconscious relives the terror, but that is just a small price to pay.  
 
I'll be happy to lead a no-drop group ride out from there (or RBM) -- if it doesn't rain that is ..      I'll keep an eye out on the weather and post something here  
 
So 12:30 lunch .. how about a 9:30 start for a 20-30 mileish ride?   we can either do the RBM route or do some of the MUPs and other routes north of there in plano.   Selfishly a 9:30  start will give me time to ride in from my home without having to break out the lights.   We can keep an eye on the weather and make a go/no go call by 10pm  saturday night.  (and if you want to ride from my house in, your welcome to join, but the pace will be rather brisk)  

As to not clutter up the street in-front of the house.  I plan to be at RBM around 930 (assuming its dry .. haha)   We will ride the distance and speed which gets us back around 1230 as to make sure we don't miss any of the festivities ..  
 
I will post here a go/no-go for myself around 8:30am

Many thanks to John and wife for a greatest get-together of clowns, ever! Great place, great food, and great friends. Thanks again.

Good to be back and get together with friends!  And Paul, I checked BJ clubs, and I'm just glad Jay and Kenny don't log on Bikejournal.
