This is the ultimate definition of "the rider is?responsible?..." if you happen to be getting your miles at an organized ride, then work with that RM for our rescue - if you're going solo, well then, you're on your own.?

I'll try to be available as much as I can for consultation and that helpful shoulder to lay your head on - virtually of course:) but I'm riding too.?

(p.s. the most difficult rule to figure out may be the "all present and accounted for at the beginning of the event" rule. I think we'll have an official start time of something like 8pm GMT on 25 December - a night ride. You'll have to figure out your local time and send a message (from your computer, cell phone, or ??) to check in with the official starter. Lets see, 8PM GMT would be a 1PM start in Las Cruces on the 25th (the Mountain Standard Time Zone is -7GMT).
