Comment by dan brown on May 24, 2010 at 9:29am: I agree 100% it was a blast (even when Winston flattened my tent and escaped at 4am). I have pictures I will upload tomorrow...

Comment by BalloonBiker on May 24, 2010 at 9:09am: Nice to meet all of the people that I hadn't met before. I hope that I can talk with people more on the next ride.

Comment by Michelle Green on May 24, 2010 at 8:49am: Yaaay, Campers! It was so nice meeting those of you I hadn't before and it was of course lovely to spend time with those of you who I liked sooo much already.

Thank you to our organizers. Super success. Super sunburn. BIKE CAMPING IS THE BEST!!!

Comment by Matt Roben on May 22, 2010 at 8:06am: Is the car meeting us in the morning? I will bring bocce ball and horseshoses only if it can be taken from us- weighs about 25lbs...

Comment by Kellie on May 21, 2010 at 9:41pm: So, it looks like Jill and I will have a space to reserve tomorrow morning and only one tent between the two of us, so if anyone needs a spot, we are sharers.
Also, I have a couple strands of christmas lights, but they are not the traditional lights. They are the kind that drape down. Still useful?
