That's what happens when you get a viagra pill stuck in your throat. Sorry, lame joke but I teach middle school so most of my material is of that caliber.

Karen - I'll PM you my cell number and I remember what you and Tony look like.
Sean - That sucks! But are you at least sending the hot 21 year old to ride? He'll still need companions, won't he?

No, he got pissed when he saw the price and bailed.

Delta IV launch from Vandenberg, Nov 4 @ 5:52-6:02 AM
There will be a Delta IV Launch from Vandenberg this Saturday. The Delta IV is one of the largest rockets the U.S. uses to launch satelites. It should be a spectacular sight.

Equally as awesome, here is the weather report for Solvang tomorrow. 0% chance of moisture.

Hey M.E.
Just a follow-up on my plans for Saturday, a couple of people bailed, still looks to be about 6-8 people. I'm guessing this ride will be more of a fun ride, in the past some of my centuries with this group have been a hammerfest. Normally, we would start right at the official start time. It looks like tomorrow we will be starting about 8:00. I still plan on being there about 7:00 in the morning. I'll call you on your cell in the AM.
We are still going to do that variation of the route that I was telling you about. If you and the other forum members want to ride with us great, the more the merrier.
See you tomorrow.

Sorry I didn't post, the bike forums was down for me from about 7pm until I went to bed last night. For now I'm spending my money on getting the bike in road worthy condition and stuff. Basically put, I found out my handlebar might have also been screwed up in the crash, and my wife is allowing me to use the money this ride would have cost towards a bar and a new helmet, and maybe a headlamp! I do plan on doing a century next year, and I will actually plan ahead and preregister for that.

Or just do one of the centuries we do as a group on BikeForums, free of registration costs. Like the Burrito Century coming up on Dec 10. That one will only cost the Amtrak ride back since it's a one way trip.

You can join us for shorter rides until you feel ready for 100.
