    I hope the ride leader packs a Coke or two. It helps me out on really long days.

    My last few big rides I have had a small Coke or Mountain Dew and not sure if it is psychological but it gets me through.

    I commonly crave a Coke after a sizable ride. It's a good eye opener.

    Yeah, I know, but I had to throw that in there. Best thing I ever had was an ice-cold 7-up at the end of a double metric. It was heaven in a can, and let me make the drive home from Ventura to Anaheim.

    Water, sugar and caffeine cocktail...more than a placebo. :thumbsup: De-fizzed cola is many a marathoner's late-race beverage.

    Ok....so I am setting Saturday Oct 20 As the commit or die day.

    I figure by that time you should have already cleared your calendar for Oct. 27.

    I need to be able to get the shuttle sorted out.

    Reply to this post and add your name.....

    I’m in with one stipulation. Someone from the north has to go with me. It’s a crazy fun ride but a long day coming from Canada. I know @Mikie may have scheduling conflicts. Crew cab truck with room for 4 or 5 and can haul plenty of bikes and willing to make it an overnighter if anyone else is.

    If @Mikie is worried he doesn't have the right bike, I'll loan him a single speed... I'll even give him the lighter one with the "less than manly" gearing! :p
