Graham, I leave Raleigh Tuesday, have to be in MI by Thurs aft, could make it to you late Tues or anytime Wed, would have to leave either by Wed afternoon or dawn Thurs to make it to MI before 4pm. Would really like to solve this, so if that timeline works for you I'm in, email me direct with where to meet you, which day is better, and a cell phone number I can send an ETA to. Anywhere nearby I can pitch a tent or find a cheap motel?
Never thought me & my 80k 20 year old $1k bike would suddenly feel like the belle of the ball that everyone wanted to dance with! Thanks so much to you all for your offers to help!
