Re: [RBW] Rodeo re-do
Well they may not be completely over. There still may be a chapter or two. Eric, we may have ridden in some brevets together in CA already but not have known each other. I started my brevet riding with Bill and Lois down in Santa Cruz, the Big Basin 200k was my favorite. Also did the Duck Double once, the Clear Lake 600k and many others there. Did alot here in Colorado too. Just seem to enjoy my shorter country rambles more these days. Keep trying to make plans to get back to California to ride, if I do I will give you a shout for sure. Have a blast at PBP!

What? Quitting randonneuring at 54? I'll be 56 when I ride PBP next year, and there will be plenty of guys in theirs 60s (and even beyond) out there.
