no long ride this month for me.
They just announced the annual company kickoff meeting. As per usual, it's in Livonia. That's a nice 35 mile ride, so 70+ miles before lunchtime and a mediocre breakfast thing in between. I did this for the first time last year and it was fun, except for the "sitting in a meeting for 2 hours" part.

However, they scheduled it for April 18, the morning after the 1040 due date (moved to the 17th this year, not the 15th). I'm probably going to be up until 3AM that morning, so I'm confident that nobody from work will even see me on the 18th. I'd like to be able to sleep in a bit, but that trick never works. In reality I'll still wake up at 6:30 and spend the whole day bleary.

I was thinking about doing the "Helluva ride" this year (starts in Hell, MI) - they have a 100 mile course. However, I don't see any good reason why I should pay someone for the privilege of riding on public roads around my house and having to put up with a bunch of other riders. I can go out any day and have nice clear roads without all those guys crowding the place up.
