Subject: ESCKTC Pre SOMA Feed / RAGNAR meeting

Pre Soma Brunch/Ranger Relay First Meeting (I'm assuming there will be more)

October 27, 2007, @ 10 am - Paulette's house (Hayden/Chapparal) PM Paulette for directions. She lives 9 miles from Tempe Town Lake. Party will be potluck style brunch.  Call out and say what you are bringing so we don't have 9 fruit bowls and 1 quiche.  Following the feeding and talking about RAGNAR, we will all head down to TTL to rack our bikes and pick up our packets for SOMA.  (Note: If you are doing SOMA but not RAGNAR you are STILL welcome!!!)

List of thing I think we could eat:  (Keeping in mind calm-tummy racing food!)

  • Crock pot o' Oatmeal
  • Quiche (Paulette has called this!)
  • Fruit
  • French toast (casserole style)
  • Various salads
  • Breakfast meat(s)
  • Coffee (Paulette does not have a large coffee pot, but she does have a grinder & an espresso machine. Can someone bring a coffee pot?)
  • Juices
  • Healthy baked goods
  • Paper plates, bowls, silver wear and glasses. (anything left from Mtn Man?)
  • And anything else you can think of.

Was wondering why the Ragnar thread blew up...

Josh and I cannot do the Sat morning deal, sorry. We have a birthday bash for my brother.

If anyone is interested, I can roast some Kona beans prior to SOMA and run them through the spur grinder - in honor of IM Kona [yes - 2 weeks too late - but it's the best I can do]. Let me know. I'll drop them off with one of the Cool Kid geeks if I hear back from y'all.

Oh - and - sorry I won't be there. It's really sad when I find that I'm bummed about missing a C00l K1d$ partay because I'm in Hawaii. I guess y'all have really gotten under my skin!

Have fun without me! [I'm sure Chris will take up the slack...]

Totally agree......we need the J.J's there for the RAGNAR part at the very least.  The kicker about the Ragnar stuff is that we need to make a few decisions and pony up some money so we can be registered by Oct 31.  The entry fee like triples or something after that, and that's just stupid! 

What about holding a RAGNAR meeting next Sunday after the ride during breakfast?

Sorry ya'll! But yeah I can do next weekend...

We can do meeting style at the breakfast place. Will be sad to miss the SOMA party but sounds like a good time!!!

Guess that requires another thread huh - Make sure everyone can make it.

Dan - if you are going to Kona we need your moolah and entry stuff before you go (will you be around next weekend though?)

I'll be around next weekend. It's funny, I called Tanya yesterday asking who I needed to drop money off with etc. specifically because of that... Didn't want my slot to get nabbed. And to think other teams struggle trying to find 12 people.

Crap. Slight problem........ Since you guys are doing PBR, you won't be at the ride this Sunday.  Next Sunday, the 21st I am on a plane!!!  So maybe we can just hold the RAGNAR meeting at a restaurant around lunch on Saturday the 20th??????   Or what are some ideas for getting this RAGNAR meeting in before the end of Oct cut off?

OK OK thinking here....well technically PBR is tomorrow. BUT I doubt I will ride Sunday either way. WHAT if we do the meeting Thurs night after swim? HEAD to RED WHITE AND BREW???? Since we skip the run now we could just swim and head for brews. Just a thought.

For those who are doing RAGNAR and are going to not be able to make it how will we get entry fees?

I will go read the rules real quick to see if we need all entries, I think we do!

Whatever happened to our Halloween party idea? That could work too!

That sounds awesome Paulette! I can't cook at all but I love to eat! I'd be glad to bring any other supplies that you need such as plates, juice whatever. And I'll have to remember to PM you to get directions

OK...Tanya's random thoughts:

RAGNAR Meeting at RWB next thurs night sounds great.

4 star food sounds awesome!

Not sure I can swing a Hallowen party in the next 2 weeks as I will be out of town for one of them.  AND I have to make my kid's costume. No time left to think about mine!

I did, however, mention at OWS last night that I would like to host a Christmas party and we can have a goofy white elephant gift exchange.  My house is small, but maybe we can round up a few patio heaters so we can spill outside a bit too.

RAGNAR MEETING NEWS UPDATE!

Due to the hectic schedule of October it has been decided that the team meeting will be postponed until Nov. or later.

HOWEVER: in order to get discounted registration we need to have everyones money and waivers/registration complete by October 31

SO: If you see myself or Tanya by then get your money in! Each participant owes:

$920/12 = $76.66
**it says LESS online but they charge tax and credit card fees. I am emailing to see if there is a mail in application to avoid the $20 cc fee but will update you on that. They seem pretty excited about their online registration fancy shmancy site so lets assume this is the only way to do it.

3 questions I need answered from everyone who is doing it:

1 - What is your projected 10K pace per mile? (They want a 10K pace per team)

2 - What shall we call our selves?
*ESCKTC, East Side Cool Kids, We are cooler than you ever will be, etc...

3 - When and how do you plan on paying? PM this info to Tanya or I so we can plan accordingly.

We would like to have everyone's moolah by the 28th this way if someone decides not to do it we have a 3 day window to fill someones spot!

GRACIAS RAGNAR BUDDIES!

We will hold a meeting when the race season calms a bit to determine legs, decorations, when to stop showering... and all that good stuff!

How long do ya'll expect to do the Pre-SOMA feed at Paulettes? I have to be in Glendale for a bday deal but may be able to pop in if I can get out of set up duties and such.

Will everyone be heading to packet pick up from there?

I need:

1) Directions
2) What I need to bring.

Naturally when I see that someone is bringing OJ, I think that champagne is missing.

I will have at least 2 boys (6 and 4) if that is OK. If my wife comes, she'll bring the littlest one as well, in which case it's easier because she's better than her brothers.

Plan is to pay Rangar dues, eat, and then do packet pickup from PJ's abode!
