Thanks much guys, really appreciate the tips. Hadn't thought about compression shorts, but honestly I'm not sure about those as a last minute addition. They may be great, but for a boxer guy they may take some getting used to and I'd rather keep both hands on the bar than one on the crotch "adjusting".

Got the water set, and lots of granola. That's about my diet anyway. I've got some decent raingear, 2 sets as I'm sure one won't do and I've got some good Sidi boots that are waterproof. I just know I'm going to have 50 lbs of waterproofing and it won't rain for once.

I'm heading north Friday night to take off very early Saturday morning. Hopefully I'll have a good ride report and some photos when I get back.

thanks again all, appreciate the wisdom and experience.
