now...we also need to think about the weather....right now, 10 day forecast has 30% chance of a few showers. if that changes to something worse by sunday or monday, then the plans will probably change....meaning if it's gonna rain, i'm not riding! and, if it's raining, i may wait till wednesday and just drive up to nyguy's place bypassing the rides.

so, let's hope for good weather cause i wanna ride with you guys and see some of the area.
Fair enough. Let's plan for 1:00. It will give you a little window for possibly checking in, and will give the folks from the east shore a little time to drive over.
If it's rainy, I wouldn't want to ride either. It was so much nicer here a month ago - a shame you missed our part of the world in it's autumnal glory, but ... unless time can be turned back, we'll have to deal with it.
