Has anyone actually gone out to PEI or are they just going to the bridge that opened in 1997 to replace the ferry?

OK, FJRForum members.... time to support our FJR-riding men and woman.... I wonder how many of our west coast forum members we can get show up in Sacomento this Sunday to support our riders?
Checkpoint 2 info:
Sunday July 7, 8pm - 10pm at the Sacramento Marriott Rancho Cordova
Scoring opens at 5pm, but spectators will want to arrive several hours beforehand, say noon or 1pm timeframe, to watch the majority of riders stream in throughout the afternoon.
The frontrunners are likely to come in within 60-90 minutes of the penalty window... as it gets very close to the penalty window, you will of course want to ensure you remain out of the way so riders can jump off their bikes and run in to see Ira Agins (IBR Gatekeeper) and stop their "clock" before penalty points start to accrue.
Leg 2 Bonuses distributed at 6am July 8
Here's the address:
Sacramento Marriott Rancho Cordova
11211 Point East Drive
Rancho Cordova, CA 95742
Come on down and show your support for your favorite rider and all the competitors!

I would say rider #138 is about the same number of "cigarettes" away being down there near Miami.

Ruby slippers? Oh no. The boots I prepared are much more impressive than stupid ruby slippers. Shyeah, you do know I was trained by Warchild, don't you?
BTW, 'checkpoint mechanic' sounds like Roger Sinclair to me. Glad your friend has been able to sort out his issues. Hope he's having fun regardless!
hrm, the Theme is Transportation... the Union Pacific railroad company has it's HQ here (along with loads of picture opportunities around town).
total speculation.. and no, I'm not going out to be a spectator. If I were closer to a checkpoint, it'd be neat, but I'm not going to gawk for the sake of it...

Hey Dale, any word on the BMW guy with the spewing fuel? Glad to see the Goldwing rider back in it, hate to see folks go out for things like that, especially so early.

We'll prolly get wet, so unless it's a complete monsoon I think Sooze and I will come out for a bit.
Yer killin' me, Smalls. Sooze and I have to work on Friday.... Don't let the left-coasters show us up.

Say isn't Friday a common "sick" day when everyone comes down with works-a-pox or something.
Wish I wasn't stuck in the middle.

I guess I could claim anal glaucoma. I just can't see my ass going to work! Seriously if I hadn't just gotten this job less than 6 months ago I'd consider it.
