I don't feel badly about it after getting mistreatment from two "cause" riders early this month. First they announced they were coming days earlier than I had been led to believe. After rearranging my schedule to host them they fell short and stopped 25 miles from me - they'd gotten a late start (1:00 PM) and couldn't make the miles. (They said they were going to try to get a free hotel room so they could watch the Tour de France.) Next morning, they said they would stop by to meet me. Again I waited, and finally gave up.

The whole experience reminds me why my Warm Showers page gives 4 weeks notice as a requirement to stay here.
