Colin,
      I'm not sure you meant to send this to the entire list or not.
Regardless, I plan on attending the Mt. Washington event and joining the
caravan to Pike's Peak. 
      Are you trying to find somebody who will allow you to use their address,
and then deliver the tires to you at Mt. Washinton? If so, I *may* be able to
accomodate you. It depends on several factors, most importantly whether I'll 
be
able to fit all my stuff in the car *and* four spare tires. Since I don't plan
on hauling a trailer, it might be very tight. 
      However, there are a number of listers in the New England region. If
nobody can help you out, get back to me and I'll see if there is a way that I
can. 

     Good luck.
