Perhaps he should change it to ConsularCounselor.

I signed up for the ride yesterday. Am hoping to do the 68 miler but will switch to the 47 if the weather is poor. Will be my first time at the event. Look for me!

BTW if you do go to Great Pumpkin – do NOT follow GPS or Google Map directions to drive there. The recommended exit from 66 will be MASSIVELY congested. Drive past one exit, just a little bit farther, and come in basically the back door – and you should be traffic free (as long as we keep this a secret between you and me)

John Picket – Rootchopper.
A couple of people from FCCI

GPS address for parking:
143 East Shirley Ave
Warrenton, VA

That’s a store across the street from the parking area

BTW you did not say what distance U is doing

[KLizotte]

68 hopefully!

[Rootchopper]

Also, @ultrarunnergirl and @ramblingrider. Distance TBD.

Yep, I’ll be out there with the NOVA-CBG group doing the 68 miler. However, I might not make it past the last rest stop.

Since they didn’t tell us in advance that the t-shirts would be long-sleeved performance shirts, I asked for a large, which looks like pajamas on me. Anyone have a small they’d willingly trade for a large? I like the shirt, but it looks ridiculous on me.

[rcannon100]

From the email I received from Fauquier Trails

Am I guaranteed a t-shirt? Yes! And they’re long sleeved, performance t-shirts this year, too! But please, no size switching (different from what you requested when you registered) until after the ride. If we have leftovers then, you’re welcome to swap.

But they didn’t say that at the time of registration, and then when they told us, it was already too late to change sizes…
