I like this. I will try to make it out to a few assuming school doesn't get in the way.

BTW, have you been racing? I did the last day of Gwinnett and some of Gainesville and I didn't see you out there.

You all should try and come up some evening. Somehow I don't think that racing till 8 and driving back is a late night for collegiate types.

My sister in law lives in Florida. We're always asked to come visit. My wife is there now.
I really need to be more interested in where she lives so I could see if it was close by. Who knows? I might be down there one time.

Come down the weekend of September 19th. You can race the Sugarloaf "Mountain" road race on Saturday and then do a sub 4 hour century on Sunday at Swampman.

I'll see if any of my 352 mates will want to make the drive.
I like your jersey sponsor list. Any chance of beer or wine primes?

You know, we haven't talked to the club sponsors about putting up primes yet. Mostly working on food. I will check and see if I can score some of the products that cover our jerseys.

I'm so freakin' out of shape that you would have to time my sprint with a calendar. A wine/beer prime might motivate me, though.
I put out the word with my team captain that I want to go to do the series and I have a minivan so I can take at least two other teammates. If even one other teammate wants to go I am in.

If you come up I'll make sure you have a bottle of wine to sprint for.

I wouldn't think so. It's pretty much just another weekend's races. I'm pretty sure people from Georgia will be there.
