Betsy, execute your executive powers & chooose the menu.
Breakfast at chompees one day sounds awesome.

AL T I saw you said earlier that you will do a ride on thrs. I arrive at noon at PHX, give me til 2 to be ready? have to register and pick up bike at tbt, then straight to our hotel..
YIKES - I haven;t even made plane reservations yet for PHX. We're probably going to be arriving early Thurs afternoon, and I will ride on late Friday morning. My earlier statement was made before I checked my hotel reservation, which is from Thurs-Mon. More later.

Booze: ON YOUR OWN!
Be sure to sign in on the official AZIM document, I have to have final numbers in 11/11/14!
As for a breakfast or lunch friday or saturday:
The Chompies on University,less than a mile from Rio Salado and Mill (finish line) does not take reservations or have a party room. But they can certainly accommodate a group by pushing tables together. Lets talk about breakfast fri or sat or lunch fri after 4 keys or saturday after open swim. The sandwiches are ginormous and certainly would give you lunch saturday and enough for take home for dinner. Pankcake and waffle meals are huge too!
Anybody have a sherpa to volunteer for photographer???
As for group rides or swim, I am available for anything. I know Al will be riding Friday afternoon
Vicki-go to the forums and find Brenda's AZIM super introductory thread. Her first post has a ton of info and links to important things. The link to the spreadsheet is there-I don't know any other way to find it??
Thanks Betsy! This all looks great! My daughter can be the official photographer. I just need to remember to charge the batteries. I would prefer nothing scheduled for sat AM as that's my last am to sleep late but lunch/brunch on Friday sounds great.
Betsy, we will be a late entry on this as we have folks coming in and our final schedule hasnt been set...ill let ya know later in October unless you have to have a count.
Paul and all-dinner count only has to be finalized two days before the event-11/11/14. Plenty of time. More at the dinner is ok-just have to guarantee a minimum.
