I may be...I'm still a little on the fence, but that would be a great November Century. Although, I would probably drive up the morning of.

I'll be there, but I'll be driving up in the morning the day of the ride.
It will be a great warm-up ride for the Tour de Tucson, that I am doing the following week.

Yippee, yippee! And Happy, you can stay on my couch the night before if you don't want to drive from Torrance. I think Scoot's car holds three bikes (look how I'm volunteering the man to drive, but he knows he gets $ pitched in toward gas, and his Mcmuffinbreakfastgreasebomb bought for him 
).
).

Not intending to be gratuitously self-promotional (but knowing that it is so) -
The Solvang's Finest Century route (and support on the route) is exponentially better than the Prelude; the entry fee includes a t-shirt, water bottle, goodie bag AND a delicious post-ride buffet lunch; and you get to ride and enjoy the checkpoints without the crazy crowds of people. We also negotiate discounted room rates at the hotels, if you're staying in town.
In addition to that, and more importantly, the proceeds are donated to a very worthwhile cause -Challenged Athlete's Foundation.
