My season has been going good so far. I've completed seven doubles to date: Camino Real, Solvang Spring, Hemet, Central Coast, Davis, Grand Tour and Bass Lake.
I have 2 doubles left for the season: Solvang Fall and Death Valley Fall. October is going to be a busy month for me with 3 doubles in 4 weekends.
I have 40 doubles now and hope to have 42 at the end of the year. Next year I only have to do 8 doubles to get into the Hall of Fame.

Yes Curtis,
It does, or it will . . . but even after I complete Camino Real I have to wait until the awards breakfast (the Sunday morning after the Knoxville Double) to actually get the Hall of Fame induction.
I don't remember if you were at the breakfast or not since Roland had me manning the video camera for him, i.e. I had very little time to look around.

I wanted my first TC and SR this year also but lost out on the early year build up rides due to injury. Just completed the Autumn Solvang DC (my second DC this year, plus the Heartbreak Hundred) and 300k and 400k brevets so I will be prepped for next year. I will shoot for 200-300k brevets early and then get going with the Camino Real DC. See you there.
Great to have this forum now.

@leaping_gnome 2011 should be a great year for ultra's with everyone qualifying on PBP. Hopefully next season is injury free and full of success for you.

Nice work Dante. I feel like I need to play catch up now. I lost out on the TC this year due to illness and injury at the height of all the spring events I had planned. I'm planning to try again next year, but some of the TC doubles also fall on the same days as some of the brevets. Completing my first SR is next years priority. I was planning to do Camino Real on my SS, but I have a 300k that same day.

Got a small box from UPS today. I had no idea what I could have ordered from AFM Engineering in Santa Ana. Some kind of promotional material, may be!
Oh! surprise when I opened the box. My last double was 6 months ago, sounds like an eternity. But here it is. Should I wear it tomorrow or put it under the tree and wait a few more days?
