8am in Redwood City.  I'll be working on people's bikes every weekend (Sundays only), from now until then, to go to this clinic.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

It is on Mother's Day (like that makes a difference).

Oh, and I thought you'd want to go riding.   You're sons could take you out later, for dinner...when it's busy and packed.

You guys still planning on going?  I'm pretty sure I'll be there, although I e-mailed Doc Wong to register and never heard back.   :dunno_white:

I'm not able to make it due to Mother's Day plans, but I wouldn't worry about not hearing back from Doc Wong.... It's a huge ride, so just show up!  :thumb:
