Tour de Gastown, Vancouver meetup
Okay, last notice:
If you want to meet Zoot Katz, half of the Fabrizio Mazzoleni Fan Club, and other Vancouver-based denizens of rbm, this is your big chance. The Steamworks Tour de Gastown is on Wednesday, July 23rd, 2003. Even if you like none of these people, you ought to make it to the race, as most of the major North American teams will be coming in, so this will be the best racing in the world that night, except maybe in France. We will be attempting to meet at the following times and locations, choose your poison: -before the start of the women's race at 6:30, on Water Street just opposite the VIP viewing area. -before the start of the men's race, same place. -after the racing, approx. 9:00 or shortly after, Subeez, 891 Homer Street (an easy ride from the race course, so bring your bike). You will be able to recognize me because I will wear my ridiculous "UBC STADIUM CRITERIUM CHAMPION" t-shirt: http://www.sfu.ca/~rcousine/bike/tshirt.jpg (see ..~rcousine/ for a picture of me) http://www.tourdegastown.com/intro.shtml Info on the race If you are planning to come, please e-mail me so that we have a reliable idea of the numbers to expect, especially at Subeez. Share & Enjoy, -- Ryan Cousineau, http://www.sfu.ca/~rcousine President, Fabrizio Mazzoleni Fan Club |

I guess I'll just be one of the guys hanging around the guy with the UBC Stadium Criterium Champion t-shirt. I just hope there won't be four other guys with that same t-shirt. I'll probably wear my t-shirt with the comic police drawing from the Yellow Pages commercial ("Is /this/ the man who robbed you?") cheers, Tom -- -- Powered by FreeBSD Above address is just a spam midden.

I never did see a "VIP" seating area, watched both races, walked the entire track too. I think I saw Tom and Zoot, I guess. Did you tie your bikes up at the pointy end of the course? I saw someone with tee shirt like that, milk carton, sorry I didn't just say hi. It was the end of the race, and everyone was heading out. Couldn't do the bar tonight, so went home. They were great races. I quite enjoyed them. Bernie |

I hung around the pointy end for about 20 min and didn't see anyone who I could recognize. I was wearing my bright red Campy jersey that everyone thinks is a Cambells soup ad...too bad I missed you. |

I was thinking we should have "continental" gatherings. North Americans meet in North America, Europeans meet in Europe, etc.... The geographic center of North America is 48°10' North, 100°10' West - 6 miles west of Balta, Pierce County, North Dakota, according to some resources. According to others, it's in Rugby, North Dakota. Bike riding distance between the two is a little under 20 miles. The main drawback of the locations for an RBM gathering is that they are in interminably boring places. With nothing to do but ride? Sounds fine to me! It's probably flat, too. -- David Kerber An optimist says "Good morning, Lord." While a pessimist says "Good Lord, it's morning". Remove the ns_ from the address before e-mailing. |
