So, who all is going to be there?

I wasn't planning on going, but Me and Emily are talking about it. Problem is the distance to get there for us

[jefenger]

I am going to be leaving from San Diego Saturday in the very wee hours of the AM. I'm thinking around 3:30AM so that we definitel get there before the scheduled events at 9AM. Feel free to email me at jessefeng [at] gmail [dot] com if you'd like to organize a caravan. I am located in the Mira Mesa area.

I believe all runs begin at the campsite Saturday morning.  Run number three sounds like a lot of fun.

Looks like I won't be there on time to make any of sat day runs due to double soccer games,  but still could meet up later in day at camp or lunch time since I would be leaving my place @ 10am after the games. 

 At the momemt kind of lost my voice, so I'll see how things go sat and try to make it out

i don't think I am going to go to the campsite. it's 40 miles away where we are going to wheel.  I am going to go up to big bear and grab breakfast and wait there.

i guess no one came up to BB. Racheal, Bobby and Robin came up, but the rest of the group was MIA.

So what did you do?

Sarah and I had a great time with you all on Sat.  Sorry we had to pull away @ Hwy 18.  Didn't think we would make it home by 5, didn't want to lose the baby sitter for next time   We forgot our camera, so we will be looking to see all your pix.

Thanks again for the invite, we look forward to wheelin with ya'll soon.
