Earl: my sincere appologies...I haven't checked the board recently until today. I've been busy with work and my second job/business. My wife and I did attend the Ride, got there about 9:45, had a front row seat for the best bike parade I've seen in a while. We mingled and sought shade for almost two hours and didn't spot one single other Vic until the black and white one pulled in----yours? We were going to follow and see where it went, but she didn't want to walk all the way to the back of the lot, and the parking-lot traffic-control (insert your favorite expletive here) wouldn't let us ride back there and keep our place for us. pfft.

So, I'm sorry if that was you, and we missed you. Either way, it was interesting day. Being still somewhat new myself, and being that close to other people who's skills are questionable, all in all made me a little nervous, but I was slow and careful, and everyone around me was too. It made for a great time.

Only thing missing was COLD water.
