seeing as how Melissa's due date is 5/28, I don't see me making it. I'll put this down as the first of many things I will miss this coming summer due to new dad duties

Besides....what are you thinking having a kid right at the early peak of the season? you'll miss spring because "It could be any day now and I shouldn't go too far away" and June/july andAugust will vanish into thin air. Don't you know the "rhythm" method includes consulting a season calendar before going to bed?

Smokin,
I think I am in too and this time I'll try not to ride away (we'll keep the ladies together), at least until I decide whether to make a shorter loop (given that I ride to the start - 20 miles round trip). Bringing your friend?
I also hope to be sporting a new bike built by Psimet (no pressure or anything there...).

I hope Dawn can come with me as well but I'd love to ride with you! It would be a long day (ha) We'd really get to know each other better !!!!! I can consult you on more lesson planning! 
Can't wait to see the bike!

Okay then, I guess I'm in

And you likely wont. What NW suburb do you live in? Your best bet is probably riding north into Wisconsin, but depending on the suburb, that could be a hell of a long ride.
