I'm signed up!

I'm surprised Cort is all but giving me his drink tickets - this will be EASY! Thanks!

Note to all - make sure to ask the bus driver if he knows how to get back to Boston before boarding the bus - a bunch of us learned the hard way last year :x

The Monson road race is typically the same day. Good climbing. I'm planning on doing that.

Active.com is experiencing technical difficulties. They are expecting a 2+ hr delay. Need to check back periodically. I'm also trying to get in.

If you really like this kind of ride and you don't make it into the B2B (or even if you do), please see my post in the Club Members/Club Info board about a possible MRC ride.
