Wish us luck!!! Waves to Wine this weekend!
Well... along with jobob, rincewind and some others, Team NorCal Bikeforums.net will be riding in the MS 150 ride this weekend! The NorCal team consists of AzureDrpTp (Thien and his gf Carol), NeCrO632 (Andy), CCorlew (Curtis and his wife, Tricia), a couple more friends of Thien and myself. Hopefully we can wrangle jobob, rince and a few others next year to ride with us! 
We'll be sporting the NorCal jerseys so if you see us give a holler!
So wish us luck as we trek from AT&T Park, over the GG Bridge and up Hwy 1 to the Sonoma area on Day 1. Should be fun but there will be a bit of climbing. According to the map most of the larger climbing will occur at the first half of the ride, so that'll be cool.
Anyway, pray for all us BF'ers on the ride this weekend!
Thanks!
Gary

The original plan was to ride the MS150 with my GF on the tandem, but she cannot make it because of work. 
So I'll be on my single bike.
If I see NorCal jerseys I'll definitely holler.
What time are you guys planning to start?

I'll be in my Amici Veloci jersey. If it's cold I'll be wearing my Triple Crown jacket over it.

A safe ride and don't forget, the west walkway (non-pedestrian side) of the Golden Gate Bridge is open on weekends.

Pssst, V, it'll be 8. Snap isn't riding, she's volunteering at the first rest stop both days. Ah, a well-oiled machine are we! (or at least I will be once we hit the Beer Garden at Somoma Mountain Village )
The eight of us will be in our Amici Veloci gear. Kind of like this:
Gary, we'll be on the lookout for the BikeForums jerseys.
And when I see one, I'll of course yell out "Hey Bikeforums !"
Oh dear, I'm getting punchy already

Hey, keep an eye out for me on Sunday. I'll be in the brand new 50+ forum BF jersey (my design!)
I spent last night packaging and shipping. I'm only losing $150 in this transaction! YEAH BABY.
So, if you love this jersey, and just have to have an extra small womens cut sleeveless PLEASE let me know. I have two due to my error in marking the order form.

So wish us luck as we trek from AT&T Park, over the GG Bridge and up Hwy 1 to the Sonoma area on Day 1. Should be fun but there will be a bit of climbing. According to the map most of the larger climbing will occur at the first half of the ride, so that'll be cool.
Anyway, pray for all us BF'ers on the ride this weekend!
Thanks!

Thanks everyone! I'm sure we'll have a great time! Did I mention that there will be free Fat Tire beer and wine at the Sonoma Mountain Village after day 1!?!?! I'm sure a lot of people will be pretty happy by that evening! haha!
We'll have the report and hopefully pics as well on Monday!
TTYL!
Gary
