41 so far.
Consider yourself confirmed if you see a * by your name (or some other cute comment).

If everyone on the original list and the confirmed list decides to come, the BRT may be oversold. I may have to bump myself, and let one of the regulars do the tour.

There's always the cargo hold on the lower deck ... no crew rest module, unfortunately

Will you offer VDB compensation?

The song is nice, but this former native Brooklynite has noticed that at least two of the beach photographs in that music video are taken at Rockaway Beach in the Rockaways, which is in Queens, not in Brooklyn.

I remember spending summers at Rockaway Beach and visiting Playland there, which I'm sure is long gone, much like Palisades Amusement Park in New Jersey.

I thought it was Riis Park In any event, while it is in Queens on the map, most of us living at that end of Brooklyn annexed it as our own a looong time ago. It was so close I often rode my bike there.

Here's the most current, up to date list. At this point, since I haven't heard back from a few of you, I'm making seats available.

If anyone is interesting in attending BRT 10, some would say/think the last BRT, send me a PM and I'll confirm your seat. I just added bobovespa to the confirmed list.
He's a repeat BRT'er.

I guess you couldn’t confirm until Calcifer gave you permission to sign up. Trust me, we married guys understand.
