First update, I am now signed up for the ride 
I am down 5 pounds so far and am getting a fair bit of riding in. I wish I could do some hill training but this place is flat as a pancake. I'm hoping to do a century prep ride by the end of the month, we'll see how that goes.
edit: and, as a bonus, my dad is planning on riding it with me. Good times

I'm signed up for the STP too Got a shiny new bike to break in and I'm a few months out of the saddle but I've kept in decent shape at least, time to retrain my butt for the long haul!

The STP sounds fun but is the same day as the Tour Deschutes in Bend Or, but it is on the sometime list for me. I host a annual fund raising ride in Bend that would be excellent training for the STP and the timing is good for it to. There is plenty of climbing too.

I'll have to look into those rides in Bend. I think I'm gonna try the RAMROD this year too, so I could use some hill climbing!

Oh, and for anyone interested, the STP is already 80% sold so get on it if you're thinking about it!
