:D
1. Do it sober
2. Don't cross the centerline due to blind hair pin turns. Head-on collision is bad for your health.
3. Watch out for the other idiots that cross the centerline
4. Drive at a moderate speed if it's your first time there
5. Watch out for cyclists
6. Leave plenty of space between cars

I'm just waiting on a few phone calls before I can make a definite yes, but it looks like I'm going. What time do you guys plan on being back? Not that it really matters, just wondering.

I'm thinking about joining you guys on Saturday. I'm not sure though.
I had plans for the weekend, and my kid has a soccer game that day. We'll see...
For sure I will at least show up at the Rig on Friday Afternoon and wish you all a
safe trip. You guys are still meeting there friday night right?

We've got one pair of walkie talkies at our house, and there's a slight chance we might be able to get another pair.

Ok, talked with a co-worker of mine Fred, "cobra-conv" said he is going. So, for deluxe room #2 looks like: Shari, Brian, Brian, Josh, & Fred.
Chris, could you update the first page for me?

And yes, do what Parmer8 said. Be very careful. Help is a long time coming if you screw up, and there are cyclists. If you want to run a little quick you may want to send someone ahead to give yoiu a heads-up.
