RCR-XII: The Twelfth Annual Right Coast Ride

Overview

The Twelfth Annual Right Coast Ride was held on June 27-29, 2003 at the Blue Ridge Motorcycle Campground near Cruso, NC.  The Grand Oompah was Sharon Wheeler, in relief for starter Jim Kerick when he was deployed to the Iraq theater.

In the middle of the plans, the East List had server problems.  This generated a lot of traffic in itself, and getting it back online even had it subjected to an Evil Mailer Loop for a while.

Then, to top it off, the weekend intended by the Starting Oompah had to be changed by the Relief Oompah in order to pull off this RCR.  This not surprisingly generated bitching, wailing, and gnashing of teeth, but it was over quickly; for the sake of my sanity I've left most of this out.
