And it begins

Arrived at the rendezvous point for the R2R ride. Dionne and i got registered including our "goody" bag. It contained an R2R jersey, bibs and socks, towel, cool T-shirt, chamois cream packets, sunblock spray, bike bottle and oh , band-aids. All of this, mind you, in a pretty cinch-bag. We had our orientation meeting and had a mandatory skills class on cornering and braking with "Gramps" (aka Jim Penseyres). Jim is a BKA (below the knee amputee) and has ridden the RAAM (Race Across America). A very nice guy.
Had a great dinner and made some new friends.
