As the, as some have pointed out, roving PDML ambassador I will feel obligated to attend this. Name the place and time and I will try my best to get there. The only May commitments are the largest half-Ironman distance triathlon in North America (the Gulf Coast Triathlon held the day before Mothers Day) and the Nature Photography weekend at GFM. Oops, I guess I have a sprint triathlon that I nees to support too. Anyhow, lets get this going... I am game. Cesar Panama City, Florida
