two years ago I changed my motor on the Sunday before Rubithon... You guys got nothing on me 
I'm so swamped with projects getting the house ready for my daughters graduation party next Friday, I can't even look at my 40.

I'm thinking I might have some room. I'm not 100% until after I get my co-pilot's gear in. I'm going to go sort of heavy on the water so the hikers can hit me up if they need some. Also, I'm going to bring my dive bag. It is a big waterproof bag. I'll toss it on the useless factory roof rack if that would help someone.
Rubicon Road to Reno Airport by way of South Lake Tahoe
(someone chime in if it is faster around the north end of the lake)
15 Minutes from Trail head to Highway
45 Minutes to South Lake Tahoe Safeway Grocery (near my house)
1:20 Minutes to Reno Airport.
That is at TOURIST SPEED. Any good cruiser head can shave 15 minutes off that time if needed.
SO on the safe side: 2.5 HOURS from end of trail to Airport.
Reno Airport is small, so figure on minimum of 15 minutes to get through security to your flight.

Speaking of "Safeway" Where's the closest Supermarket to the trail to stop for Ice and groceries? My GPS pulls up a few, but I'll ask anyway.

Final run lists have been sent out to trail leaders. Trail leader 'stuff' is either arriving or will be arriving shortly. Will follow up with radio channels.
Breakfast counts to Ice House and list. Bring those yellow tickets that were in your confirmation. Did not get your confirmation?? don't fret, just show up, they have a list with last names.
Raffle stuff (and there is a lot of it) dropped off for escort into the springs.
Picking up shirts this Friday for bag and tag.
and finally, if you have not registered, register in the Springs. You must register to receive your camping permit. folks without a permit will be asked to leave. Please don't put us in this unfortunate scenario. Simply register.
That is all... packing thoroughly, but do not overpack. Prepare for sun, but don't forget tarps and raingear. Bring a Marauder Bar donation. Bring a raffle prize.
Get ready to have an excellent time on the Rubicon with your TLCA friends!
