View Full Version : I've got to figure out a way to get to the FInger Lakes Ramble

Given the number of events I'm planning to ride in and the time on the bike, I had been planning to not go to Dr. Brook's this summer so as to keep my marriage and business partnership intact.

But I am beginning to experience Forum Gathering Withdrawal and may have to change my thinking.

So:

1. Who from the Boston area is going out to the event?

2. Does anyone have a spare motel bed they want to "rent" out?

I might have to do a lot of 'splainin' to my wife and business partner to make this happen, but this just sounds like way too much fun.

I'll be heading out to hook up with Ahneida and then onward to the TdFL. I can't help you on a room but I could share a ride out if needed.

Hey Cuz,
I guess it would be "out of the way" to ask if you could swing down to north Florida and pick me and the bike up on your way to TdFL? :rolleyes: :p
I, like Bruce, am having "Forum Gathering Withdrawal". :crap:

I feel your pain Bruce. I'm still look'n for someone to go on vacation with my wife so I can attend!

I thought about taking a picture of me and my ride, have a big cardboard poster made and ask Douglas to place me on his porch. Maybe a tape player in loop mode of me saying something semi-intellegent. "Hi, I'm OldDog. Nice bike ya have there, are those 650b Dugast's under those Honjo's?"

:rolleyes:

I'm having Nottrott withdrawal and, of course, Ottrott in Francaise...sigh. But I can promise you I'll be here for the Ramble. If anyone needs help with accommodations, please write to me. In July we will take a head count poll, 'cause I have to figure out just how much curry (to say nothing of kool aid) I need to make for Saturday evening. I'm working too on having some fun stuff, like ball caps and tees from a few of our favorite builders.

This throws the thread but you gotta have a look at the latest thing Chris has made. Toss aways yer Kashimax thingamagig and lace up one of these: http://velo-orange.blogspot.com/2006/05/top-tube-protector.html

Also, first long ride on the new Legend Ti this morning. Full report to follow. If I had more than two thumbs they would be up too.

See'ya'all in August. ml yo
