Churn and Burn 24 - Ashford, CT
- Thread starter I Are Baboon
- Start date
On the contrary! We're all camping together according to Steve at Churn & Burn. What are your team names? He's going to try to get me set up close to you all as well!!!Definately swing bycentral. Look for Splats RM banner!! I think we're all going to end up being camped pretty close to each other.
Except maybe for Treesaw....
Edit: This is post 5000!!!
you dont get to camp!! - you have to ride in circles for hours & hours & hours!!
We're "Four Monkeys and a Baboon"!!
...even though that adds up to five and there are really only four riders, but dammit we'll always be 4MAAB! If me and Splat ever do a duo, we'll be 4MAAB.
Humanities Only Hope - this steve guy is a beast for helping us out like this.
I know, but I need people around to watch Sq-Earl's drinking antics and fill me in on what I missyou dont get to camp!! - you have to ride in circles for hours & hours & hours!!
He's great. Get's RIGHT back to you via e-mail and everything! That's what I call organization!
Awesome T!!! I just figured that like most 24-hours, the solo riders would be camping away from teh teams. Glad I was wrong!!
everyone see its a 11:00am start?
Thats good to know ! since I plan on sleeping at home friday night.
I did too, but he said that everyone was just camping together which works for me!Awesome T!!! I just figured that like most 24-hours, the solo riders would be camping away from teh teams. Glad I was wrong!!
And there's a mandatory meeting at 10am (not sure if it's for captains or all riders).
Capts. & Co-Capts. I think.
I'm planning on doing a pre-ride this Sunday.
What time IAB?
I really don't know. It certainly won't be too early. Maybe 1:00ish?
MBC and I are going to the Red Sox game Saturday night, so I'm going to want to sleep in Sunday.
When is everyone arriving in Ashford? Are most of you MA./CT. monkeys arriving the morning of the race? Treesaw, what about you guys? I'm thinking of heading down Fri. afternoon to get our camp set up, etc., but I think I'll be flying solo. Anyone gonna be around to share a beer with?
I am planning on getting there early Saturday morning to get all set up before the race starts. I am sleeping at home Friday night (I'm an hour away). I am taking Friday off so I can hang around the camp with my fellow monkeys and do a practice lap. I think our Doug replacement (Keith) is planning on camping Friday night.When is everyone arriving in Ashford? Are most of you MA./CT. monkeys arriving the morning of the race?

I work that Friday, but if you are interested in carpooling I could see about bugging out early
I was planning on working a full day Friday (until 4pm) and then heading down. Let me know if that works for you...
I'll probably be arriving early Saturday morning too and probably sleeping in my van when I have rest times. I forgot that Bailey had chewed some of the cable that goes through my tent poles, so my tent is not functional for the weekend.
I think we're planning on arriving on Saturday morning. I'll check with Sq-Earl and let you know though because we might be able to do Friday when you get out of work.When is everyone arriving in Ashford?

I have Friday off . I plan onsetting up camp and a hanging out for a Bit. It is Peters Birthday , so I can't hang out too late. I plan on sleeping at home for a good night sleep , and getting back to ashford early.
Hey Splat and McG:
Without justbill there this year, obviously we're on our own for food and cooking supplies. Who's got a portable stove and cookware? I don't have any of that stuff. Keith has a large canopy he'll bring. Any other camping/cooking supplies we need to share?

I have a coleman propane grill and a junky ezup I could bring
Sweet. Bring 'em! Without Bill's camper and truck, we'll have more room in our campsite this year.
We need pots and pans too. Anyone?
Anyone have a small table they can bring to put the grill on?
Well if we have power at the Campsite, I will bring a micro wave!!
camping & a microwave = 
lthumbsdown:
lthumbsdown:
Yeah baby!! Burritos for all!!!!
Hey, the Jackalopes and Ass Balancers had one at Dalton the last two years.camping & a microwave =
they are soft like girl
once you have partaked in the consumption of a Bombers Buritto, you can no longer eat microwaved frozen burritos :yuck:
Agreed - bombers rocks.
I think Treesaw brought a microwave the last year we were at Dalton, we tried to use it to heat up lasagne, but my wussy generator didn't put out enough juice, so we ate cold lasagne.
I've got a little green portable grill and some lighter fluid - somone supply the charcoal and we can grill to our hearts desire.
We have a stove and a little table thing to set it up on. If we're all together then we can all use the same stuff.
So we (H.O.H.) came up with a few questions at out team meeting last night that maybe you can help us answer...
1.) No liability waiver? As far as I can tell, the registration process did not require anyone to sign any sort of waiver of liability for the race, electronic or otherwise. Doesn't this seem odd? Wouldn't insurances require that this be done? They can't expect all racers to fill something out in person upon arrival can they?
2.) Is the racers meeting @ 10am on Sat. really for ALL racers, or just Capt./Co-Capt.'s? Just trying to make sure our peeps arrive on time...
Thanks in advance...

I registered our team online and got like a 142 page waiver that I printed out. If you'd like, I can fax you a copy.
I would think the meeting is a captain's meeting.
