              Ron, the shirt thread is here

              but I think you are too late to order one. You might query Ralph and see if he has any extras.

              Leaving after breakfast at around 9 AM from here (motel location)

                  Wooooo hoooooo!!!

                  We have had so many rainy days down here I wouldn't know what to do if the sun shined for more than one day at a time. At one point, we had 11rain days in a row then a couple cloudy w/o rain and then a week of more rain... Soggy as can be down here. The grass is growing wild but the ground is so wet the mower sinks...

                      Always pack your rain gear. You know what happens if you don't.....

                        Hey, Russ! It works! Since you posted that bit of wisdom, the rain prediction for the 22nd dropped from 60% to 20%. I kid you not!

                            Not long now. Temps look really good I was not expecting so high. Still i will pack the rain suit as always and the warm layers too.
                            Lennart has decided not to come this year. He sends his regards to all. I am trying to get Big Daddy to ride along. We shall see

                              Is anyone passing by WashDC Friday? If so I'd like to join up with you. Otherwise I may ride up to Delaware Thursday and overnight with my parents.

                              I see Dpotter58 is heading up Thursday, but it looks like his group is leaving earlier and going further.

                              Less than a week? Guess I should see if I can get my bike started.
