I get an even closer encounter, as they pass within a few hundred meters of my house ;-) They get to spend the rest day here, too, which should be nice at that time of year. I have no experience with C.O., does anyone know what sorts of things they need from people in the host towns? I will at least ride out of town for a while when the group leaves, just to visit...
