Good meeting -- save the date for March 26-28.

We will get a formal thread posted with the lodging and logistics details set up.

Basic outline: 

   * Ride up or Trailer up Friday morning
   * Trailer up group will have a shorter Friday afternoon ride
   * Big Saturday Ride -- all day
   * 2/3rds Sunday ride including breakfast stop for trailer crowd.  Ride home group rides home.

Saturday Ride:

   * For sure we will have two groups, but can have as many as makes sense:

      * A "sport" group for those looking to ride tank-to-tank and focus pretty much entirely on roads and riding.
      * A more "touring" group with a few more stops, and fewer miles, too.
      * Depending on turn-out and desires among the group, it may make sense to have several groups -- let's just play that by ear.
      * We need leaders for the touring group, and perhaps for a "modest pace" (say 1.5x corner speed?) sport group.
      * I can lead a 2x sport group.  I ride slow in the straights, and stop for EVERYONE at ALL CHANGES of direction, though, so even "modest pace" riders are usually comfortable in my group.  They get a bit behind in the tight stuff, but I am totally happy to wait at the end of each segment.  No one should feel pressured to "keep up".  (likewise, feel free to take a copy of the map and leave me in the dust!)

It was good seeing Jim and Lisa this morning.  I had forgotten how nice Motopia was.

Lisa, you and Randy really have a nice setup [thumbsup]

Randy does good work, too.  He put in my Suter Slipper Clutch, deciphering the "german-glish" the instructions were written in.

He's real particular.  I like using him when it's a job with a lot of small details that need to be right.
