Rivendell Hugh, I have a lot going on the 23th due to work, but I am committed to getting there and camping with you folks. I want to see all of you you and see your bikes. Whether I ride from Del Mar or do some combination of contingencies (train + bike) I will get there. I've figured out several Amtrak options. Even if it's after dark. Do you still have some space for me, a Samuel Hillborne, and modest tent space? I do regret that I cannot commit to getting up to starting from Irvine for the full S24O from the transit station or Doug's in the timeframe (have lighting, and can deal with dark if I do it later).
I may opt with Doug and either bring take out or ride out for comeda. I don't want to take all the cook gear. OTOH, once I've got there, I have a largish Sackville, saddle bag and can do carrier service back into civilization for supplies and any liquid refreshment that might be required to ensure restful sleep. I might opt to ride back South with any San Diegans or those who would like to extend their ride and visit our county. Let me know. I ride slow. un-racer. Do you have a reservation and how do I specify the campsite when I get there?. What did this cost you to reserve? May I contribute? I am a short timer in this group, but I have seen such passion about these bikes and the people here that I feel compelled to meet all of you that turn out. Heck yes, I am bringing camera and iPhone (gotta prove that it happened to wife). Perhaps we should create a "proof that it happened" clump on flickr and post so other folks can enjoy.
