Ready or not

We're at about the 1 month count down. I'm curious to hear how everyone's training is coming along. If you haven't started riding pretty regularly, this weekend would be a great time to start. There's still time to build up your endurance and get you butt ready to ride 350 miles.
If anyone is going to be in Boise before then, I'd love to train with you.

I did the ride below with me brother yesterday. It wasn't real long but it had some pretty gnarly climbs.

When money talks, I hate to listen

I propose that we prepay Levi for gas money. I spoke to him and he thought gas $ would be about $550. There are 8 of us, so that works out to be $70 a person. I think we should all make sure to get the money to Levi before the trip. That way someone, and it would probably be Levi, doesn't get stuck covering people who never get around to paying or making full payment.
I've spoken to a few of the crew and they all thought it made the most sense to split the fuel costs evenly. I know some of us, including me, will not be in the car whole trip. However, at some point we'll all be in the car. So we all need the car to make the trip. If you disagree, that's fine. Post a comment and we can get a discussion going.
We should probably do the same for campgrounds and hotel stays....
