I will try to make the staging, I have to go to work first, so if I miss the staging, like everyone else I might have to catch up east of Taylor.August 19, 2009 at 1:10 pm #2107markwellsKeymasterTo the fine folks planning to join the ride to Rockdale in route, please remember to fall in at the rear. The tailgunner will make a space for you. Ride safe, everyone.
