Matt, are you doing the FM24 race? I think your pink eye (if it lasted that long, which I hope it doesn't) could add a nice level of intimidation to the race. Pink Eye = Zombie.
No 24 hour race in Atlanta for me...I have a lot going on at work the following week and I figure it would take some time to recover. Besides, the doc gave me a scrip for 10 ml of eye drops that cost 25 dollars, so for that price it should clear it up pretty quick.

So last night I somehow picked up 5 screws in 3 of my car tires, too late to plug them for work this morning. So I rode up to work in the Oldsmar/Tampa area. Not to brag but I just mapquested it and and it wass 25.82 miles and I made it in an hour and 15 minutes I had time to stop and eat and still got there anhour early at 7. The ride home may be a different story, I'm a little pooped. Danny still probably would have beat me
Dude, the bus is dead?! That is terrible news.

That's awesome, dude. I've been too drunk to drive home from Tampa a few times, and I usually end up riding back to USF the next afternoon. It's about 35 miles from my house to the university, and I ride it in about two hours. The ride is fun until I get to Tampa. Bayshore to Florida isn't bad, but 40th street to USF blows donkeys.

any updates on the transportation to and from Atlanta? Any new ideas
Im still offering my truck, I have room for 1 1/2 people and several bikes. I also forgot to mention that I have a trailor. Its the rear end of a rabbit pickup, so it could carry several bikes. We could just use the trailor behind the van also.
who was out on snell isle tonight? I think that I met you at one of the races. you passed me, I followed you for a little bit, then you went somewhere I wasn't going. I kind of have to thak you, I was riding like a tourist before you passed me, and i was inspired to push it for the rest of the ride.

Ok so Atlanta. Are we renting a van? if not I need to know. My uncle 's letting me use his mini van as long as at some point I can pick up some cabinets from Ikea for him. So give me a heads up. someone can ride with me maybe two more.
Also, Mike give me a call when you know when that wheel will be done or when you think it might. I'm so antsy I can't stand it.

i always thought "The Poo Tossers" was a great name.
or "Monkey Nuggets"
or "Velorevolutionaries", on a less scatological note.
ooh, "The Scatogories".
"Wheeled Dildos"
"Four Minutes of Fun"
"The Baby Seal Club" (with requisite shirts of an infant Seal, the english singer guy)
"The Shoulda Been Blowjobs"
lemme drink some beers. i'll come up with some more.

First, nobody has a buddy named Joe Burns.
Second, all on your team Andrew, are fixed.
Third, keep drinking Taylor.
Fourth, I will start making a list on transportation.
If you are driving and have room, let me know.
If you are driving and don't have room, let me know.
If you need a ride, let me know.
If you'd rather not, but would, or could, but will, let me know.
We'll sort it out. Email me.

these are my options so far:
I have a tacoma extended cab good for me+1 1/2. I also have a trailor. this makes mucho roomo for bicyclos. I can leave at any time friday, earlier the better though. I estimate tacoma gas cost at $120-150 total. Im also down to rent a 12 passenger van from AVIS for $400 + aprox $200 gas, and tow my trailor with the van. If anyone is interested in riding, speak up.

Sleeping arrangements are in the works. You'll have floor space somewhere. Hopefully a huge loft downtown. And you're welcome to set up a tent or something in my backyard during the race to have a place to crash (my house is literally two houses down from Johnny's).
