Just wondering if any formal/informal gathering is planned for slowtwitchers at the Oceanside? Who’s is in?
Charlie
I’m in not racing but i will come and hang out…
I’m still debating coming out to watch and take photos. I’ll keep an eye on this thread just in case I do make it out.
In years past, we’ve done meetings. ‘06, it was at the Rockin’ Lobster at the Harbor. '08, we met at the base of the Pier just to put names to faces. Pretty short meeting, but nice to see people. We’ll see who chimes in.
I’ll be there doing the back up timing and helping at the swim start. Just find a tall good looking guy with great hair…and then ask him to point me out.
I’m racing again, Kylie is cheering, we’ll be down there Friday afternoon. We met a bunch of ST’ers at the pier on Friday a couple years ago.
I’m racing, coming out from the east coast to visit family and to race. I can’t wait. I’ll be hanging out with my pops, and bros though. So no ST gathering for me.
Sure count me in.

I thought that was 07. Last year you went to some game show:)
If I register on Fri I’m in. I might register on Thurs.
PS: I just found a pic of it. Stacy, Jodi, Make Plumb/Girlfriend, You, Iron Cathy, I think Mikedonia/Kyliea and few others. I would post the pic but I’m computer challenged.
Dang Bob, you’re right. I was at a game show thing the day before the race last year, so yes, the Pier meeting was '07. No one ever posted a pic of that! Come on Bob, figure it out, or just email it to me and I’ll post it:

I’m in… I’ll keep an eye out on this post to find out where and when everyone’s gettin together. It’d be cool to see some of the faces of the people who post.

I’ll probably be able to make it. Lets make it at a time when we can do packet pickup too. I’m coming in from Del Mar. I’m already all nervous for this race and it’s still 2+ weeks away!
Jodi
Im in. Someone who knows the area better suggest a place!

I’m at work today so I will give it a try tomorrow. It’s a good pic.
I will be there racing and would be game for something

I’m in. Any suggestions on where/when to meet? Late Friday afternoon works best for me.
Okay, I’m not familiar with Oceanside so anyone who has done this event repeatedly have any suggestions?
Ok, executive decision time. Last year we met at the main entrance to the expo. Assuming the expo is set up as it was in the past…
Let’s meet just inside the main expo entrance, the one that’s on the strand/path and faces the ocean. 3:00PM on Friday. Last year there was a big Gatorade bottle and a coffee/food cart there.
Hopefully that time/location works for most everyone. See you there!
Here’s a pic that Longboarder sent me from our meeting in '07:

That’s Jodi, Longboarder’s wife Stacy, yours truly, Trackieclm (formerly Ironclm) and for the life of me, I can’t identify the others, though I think that’s MikePlumb with the had on in the back row.
I’m in the green shirt next to Cathy, and behind me is Mike (mikedonia).
