Sorry I couldn't join you but I was in England by then, still in England now. I did get in one short bike ride (on a borrowed Look carbon w/SRAM), but quite short compared to your double. I really wanted to ride that one to get my 50th, but work came first. Hope to see you on Spring Solvang, which will be right after I get back from Taiwan. Lots of bike business travel in Feb. and Mar. for me.
I know we've had rain on Solvang Spring in the past too, so I might get a double in the rain after all!

I was wondering where you were, of course I could have dropped you a PM. The Butterflood was '05, I had to look it up. I think the Butterflood rained for a longer time, had more flooded roads with mud, but this year the rain was colder. The weather for Death Valley this year isn't looking much better, some weather sites are even calling for snow showers.
