OK - I'm going to be there! Doing the 50, though. And I have a feeling this will be one of the last centuries I do outside of Los Angeles without taking along a friend - it's economically difficult and a waste of resources to justify driving hundreds of miles for a half or one day ride (I'll make an exception for my favorite supported ride, the Chico Wildflower Century) by myself. But then, when I signed up, gas wasn't $4.50 a gallon that it is now in L.A.
Next long ride out of town, I either have to carpool with a few friends or ride to the start.
See you tomorrow....
