I'd be up for joining if you haven't quite started yet. I have basically no preferences...the previous suggestions sound fine, and I'll take pretty much any race that's left.
As for time zone I'm US central time, so GMT -5 I'd suppose.
If you'll accept me my email is
cvernooy@mail.utexas.edu, and if not... This is a pretty late response so I don't mind if you don't want me in or have already started.
