[SFDXA] [FCG] OZ1AA and his bicycle tour around the world

[Pete Rimmel N8PR]

Thomas,

I live 15 minutes from Ft. Lauderdale Airport.  When are you coming in, and 
who is meeting you.  Perhaps we can get together, and I can find a few 
others who might want to meet you on the 4th.

I hope you enjoy the margaritas and the Margaritas while in Cancun.

73,  PeteR  N8PR

Thomas replied right away with his plans!:

"I'm arriving on the 4th of July in Fort Lauderdale airport...
Flying in from  Cancun. Yeah, 4th of July, just in time for the
fireworks! I already have a  friend who is picking me up in the airport
etc.

Probably already the next  day, Sunday, I will start cycling north.
Will be sticking to the east coast of  FL and I usually cycle 100 km/60
miles a day. That means something like 3 days  to get to the Melbourne
area, and a week to get to Jacksonville.

If someone  up there near Jacksonville is doing the IARU on the
11th-12th , that would be a  good excuse for me to stop for the weekend  :-) 
"
So how about a gathering in Ft Lauderdale on Sunday the 5th before Thomas 
heads N?
Then something on the 8th or so in the Melbourne area?



Thomas showed wonderful hospitality to me and WC4E back in July 2002 on our 
way back from WRTC in Helsinki, so let's return the favor by showing him how 
hospitable us FCGers/SFDXAers can be?
