I just noticed the "hotty toddy" sig line. I'm a USM grad. I retract anything helpful I have ever, or may ever offer.

Y'all should swing down (or up, depending on where you are) to Clinton for the Cyclists Curing Cancer Century Ride. I think the distances are 25, 50, 62, and 100. Ofcourse, it's an out and back on the Trace headed south, so you can turn around whenever you want. It's $40, which seems a bit much to ride on the Trace, but if it's anything like the one that starts in Ridgeland in April, then there will be a ton of support and great food and water stops along the way.
It's this weekend (Sept. 15th) and starts at 7:30am.
