It is time again to plan the annual wings and beers fest...
Based on the profiles I have identified 4 possible nights for booking the back room at Blondies:
July 13 Val D'Aran - good stage but a little early in the tour
July 18 L Alpe d'Huez - nuff said, but it's my B'Day so I won't be there
July 19 - Another HC mountain finish
July 20.
Voice your prefs and we'll rank then nights and see when the room is free.

What's a BAD day to watch the TdF????
I'd say the 18th or 19th for maximum drama content, but, really, I'll show up most any day. I'm also happy to host informal gatherings at my place -- I work at home and my TV will be hardwired to OLN for the month of July.

TdF night not scheduled by me for July 11 -
But apparently there is a club meeting there that night. The racing is pretty flat on the 11th so I'll definitely try to book another night of pure race watching for a mountain stage as outlined above.

I have booked one night the past few years
"We have had one night the past few years that has been the ""official party"", people do go others but may not have sound. It is usually pretty fun, where else can you see 6 A22+ riders sitting in a perfect echelon splitting a single order of wings (got to watch their weight), when else can you go to a bar with bad helmet hair and not get laughed at by the other patrons, we'll have a bad biker tan lines contest too if the racing is a bore."

Blondies/Club Meeting
Blondie's is officially booked for the 11th. We usually bring in a packed house so I don't know why they wouldn't give us another night as well.

Tour Defrance viewing at Blondies
I think Stage 15 on July 18th which finishes on Alp D' huez would be the most exciting to watch. That's my pick.
