Rob & Robin, Bob & Gwen,  Glad you guys will be joining us.  The beach and finish line are 400 yards away and it should be set up as a party.  Nathan and Lori will probably hang out at the beach during the day.  Lori doesn't drive my truck at all so I doubt she'll want to drive it in the tiny beach towns.  I don't know what we will have planned Saturday night or where we will host it.  I can tell you the riders will be pooped.....we may ask to gather at someone's site who isn't riding.  Campfires aren't allowed but I wonder if they allow those propane campfires  ::)  We'll have to check. 

We are team "Pass on Left".  We are the second highest fundraising team.  We just got edged out by $200

Mike can probably answer the question with better detail, he has been riding and raising money for 5 or 6 years now. 

I know that money donated to a team member goes to the team total.  I don't know if we get team recognition at the event.  I only brought it up because I noticed we were #2 for the teams.  Individually each rider must raise at least $300 in order to ride.  If we meet certain totals we get a T-shirt or a Jersey.  Personally I have reached my $300 minimum that I need to raise.  I am asking my friends and family to donate to my niece so that she hits the higher goals and gets the cooler T-shirt.

We are about 1 1/2 months away.  Many of us are biking like crazy to train for the bike ride.  Personally I am doing 20 miles on the weekends when I have the time and a shorter 8-10 miles during the week.  Hopefully I'll be ready to do the 45 mile ride in September.  I think I will try to kick it up to closer to 22-25 miles soon and I want to be doing 30 miles closer to the event. 

2 weeks ago I had my 14yo niece on a 20 mile ride and she did it  :cheerleader:
