right now we are about half way through day zero. Burns and I started out our day by making a trip down to the local Starbucks where we met two other guys from Maine! We spent about an hour sipping coffee from a French Press and sharing stories with the fellow Mainers. 

After getting our caffeine fix for the day Burns and I headed out for our ride. Nothing special about our ride today, just an hour spin with a few hard efforts to open the legs for tomorrow. From there it has been complete chaos. Registration took over an hour and a half. We had to sign a ton of papers, sign up for meals etc... Complete chaos. 

I am currently sitting in the mandatory riders meeting as I write this. Hopefully Burns is paying attention! After the meeting Burns and I will hopefully be meeting up with our mechanic. By 4pm tonight we have to check in our bikes. Besides that I am not sure what else needs to be done so I guess I should put the computer away and start paying attention. Stay tuned.
