very high...

Still working the dates- I think that might be the weked of the Tour de Donut, which would keep me out Saturday. The hangover will probably make Sunday tough, but I ain't rulin it out yet

Unless they change the weekend, that should be the TdD date. As I mentioned earlier, I have tickets to a concert the night before and will be missing both the Tour de Belleviile (Illinois) Friday night and the Donut on Saturday morning.

Nope. But the large quantities of music, ribs and beer afterwards usually does. Oh yeah, and the BBQed Spam.

They bbq Spam there? I didn't know that. I usually do that ride but I don't stay after for the festivities. I've had my fill of large quantities of music, beer, etc. in my life. I'm too old for that stuff. Done learnt my lesson.

Due to schedule conflicts for our friends, it looks like we will be doing the Katy in late September instead of joining you guys in July... (
