Please look for your names and if I've missed you, forgive me!

I just want to send a huge "Thank You" to all of you wonderful people who helped to make today's Pace the rise the busiest we have hosted! We almost ran out of Registration Forms, and Audrey printed 100!!!

Gael had a hard time finding parking places for everyone but we didn't turn anyone away!

We had only VERY positive feedback - all the riders LOVED the challenging course which we think was close to 12 miles!  Makes it worth coming!

Thank you to: (in NO PARTICULAR ORDER!)

Audrey -- for the paperwork and everything

Trish -- for planning such a great course and Mowing and Mowing and Mowing and being there forever despite John's pain!
