BOTH.

Cool, I will adjust the calendar accordingly. So people will know that there will be events on the dates.

Thanks.

bcski, The Wegmans is not in Fairfax, but in Sterling, VA. A navigator co-pilot is nice to have, if nothing else for the company, but not essential.

All: I have adjusted the first post and the two RSVP entries, including announcing the names of the two versions of the run.

Awesome! Will definitely be there on the 6th! Might try the 20th again but I do know that there will be some '420' parties taking place the night before...

I'll also get a chance to finally bring the boyfriend out. He works every 3rd sat, which is when the monthly breakfasts seem to be held.

I'll need to pick up some 2 way radios for the run and future runs...what kind exactly should I buy or do you guys recommend?

You want to make sure that they are GMS/FRS radios- meaning that they have channels AND subchannels. You can find them a lot of places, and they are sold for a range of prices. But really key to have on runs!

Looks like an excellent run for my first since I am familiar with a lot of these roads. Sounds like the roads I ridden my Kawasaki ZRX1100 on many times. See ya on the 6th.

Not unless you guys want to organize them... I have my hands tied just locking down the final routes & making the arrangements for lunch & wine tasting!
