I'm there, with no snot accompanyment this time. I promise to be
well rested too. Saving the part-tay for Saturday night.

See you there!

ps. i like the coast idea, but don't know enough to know a route.

pps. might post a Santa Cruz Sunday dirt ride to the list (a little
rain never hurt). keep your eyes open or email me if you're
interested and i don't send anything out.
