Lake Placid Tri Rally
We had a family change of plans so it turns out I will be in Lake Placid this weekend! I signed up for the Lake Placid Half Marathon which is running on Sunday. Just to warn folks the marathon and half-marathon are pretty big races (last year about 1500 folks I think). The course is almost identical to the Ironman course, so plans for campers to run the course on Sunday morning may be complicated. I'll be trying to put down a good time for the half (actually racing it with a slight taper and all) so I won't be doing anything long on Saturday. Likely just a short bike, maybe 2-hours or so. If anyone is interested in a light-tour on Saturday, let me know.
We actually bought a small house in LP over the winter since we spend so much time there. It is on Grandview, smack in the middle of the village (just above the movie theater and around corner from Placid Planet). We have been doing some renovation and construction on it during the "mud-season". Was supposed to be done by Memorial Day, but work continues. I am hoping it is done or largely done by this weekend. If so, we can use it as the informal clubhouse for da 'Haus. Looking forward to seeing everyone.
[The house renovation budget consumed the Regensburg travel budget, so despite my signature line which I have to fix, I am out for Regensburg this year. Definitely in for LP in 2012].

Glad to hear that you will be joining the fun. You game for the whiteface TT on Thursday? That should help with the taper...
Have to work through Friday, so I won't get into town until Friday night.
Too bad I can't be there cuz I would soooo kick your ass on Thursday. No fat, out of shape, 23-11 up friggin' WF for me.
