Despite the iffy/rainy weather, we had a great turnout. There were 32 riders doing a whole bunch of miles. Besides the rain, which ended fairly soon, the only issues I was aware of were 2 flats, one leaving the parking lot.

Massive amounts of food were consumed that had been prepared by world famous chef Roland Pearson (thanks Roland). A bunch of riding apparel was available FREE not even a raffle ticket (no extra cost) was needed. Speaking of raffles, there were 3 gift cards to the Bikery (value $110), 2 gift cards to Bike Loft (value $50) and one gift card to Syracuse Bike (value $25) up for grabs as well as a road morph pump, and jersey. WOW….. all for the low low admission price of $15.

I think one of the best parts was the incredibly short business meeting. 😊

Many thanks to the Bikery who provided the participation awards to 15 or so members. Also, thanks to those who stayed behind to help with cleanup.

If you have any suggestions for change, let one of your board members know.

Hope you can make it next year.
