Remember when I told you guys not to ride up Bear Mountain Road, and you did it anyway?

Double up your laps at night. It's hard to get to sleep and to get up. It's not that hard to do a 2 hour night ride. In fact, it's pretty much of a blast. Not only does every one get to sleep for four or five hours, the volunteers/support/captain don't have to go down to the timing tent as often during the night.

Three 24hrs, team captain twice, 5th and 6th of 20ish resp.
Hey, I like going up Bear Mountain! It was Larry who didn't know what he was getting into, and took extra special glee at ignoring your advice.

I have assembled pretty much the same survival pack... I've also included a bottle of Glennmorangie to keep the pistons firing at night.
Sweet. Can I borrow some of your sleeping pills, pep pills, tranquilizer pills, morphine, Glennmorangie, and the .45? I think taking those all at once will result in a lap to remember. Someone got a camera?
 
Im in. The waiting is killing me. Lets just all pray the fog/drizzle will leave us alone this year. I've pre riden the trail and wrote a report about it if you would like to read. I even did some trail maintenance on Sunday. A few spots where you had to duck to miss a branch or bush is no longer there.

Who's all going?
My wife's on an all-woman team, most are mom's. It's how she wants to spend Mother's Day. I think it's pretty cool. If she's still conscious Sunday afternoon she says she wants to go to her Mother's house to celebrate. We'll see. :)

Wish I was going but I'm on kid duty. They'll be helping me do volunteer work at the Berkeley Hills Road Race.

:idea: See that Zorg??? Is it to late to change our name?
I don't think so, but we can always say that our name is Rag Tag Racing aka Glennmorangie and a .45

The .45 reminds me of some catchy song but I can't remember the damn title.
 
Oh man...

I'm going but I'm not sure what I'll be riding, one of the swingarms on my Switchblade snapped like twig yesterday. Farging Bastiges. See if I can dig up the short travel kit that I stashed some time ago. Grrrr.
iThat sucks. All in all though..you might want the shorter travel set up...i dont know..
