Anyone catch that sunset tonight? I looked out the window...wow! grabbed my camera and headed for the roof. I Took one shot, heard an explosion and turned and snapped just as some fireworks went off in the bay behind Coit tower! Sometimes timing is everything...I think it's going to be a perfect weekend, at least that my forcast and not just the weather:thumb:

Great shots Pete! I agree, it's going to be a perfect weekend. Can't wait for Saturday.

Off-topic question... We can start at 4:30 on Saturday if we have our registration stuff? No one is answering on the long distance forum... If so, sweet!

Yep curtis and I will be there 4:30am, look for my taxi (yellow) Saturn SC2..Hard to miss.

I'm doing a pre ride around 3pm from our hotel if you want to meet up...easy 20 miles or so to acclimate and pick up map and what not. 415-828-0467

Pete, I'm going to hit the pasta dinner early, check in, and try to get in bed early.
I'm hoping we can actually be leaving at 4:30. I'm thinking with the heat eveyy minute we can get before the heat gets bad will be important.
