Same to you, Bill! You and Phil are great to ride with as well; I think we make a pretty good team. Sorry about the cramping problem . . . truth is, those first 5 miles or so of the second loop felt pretty miserable to me, too - I'd gotten cold when we stopped.

And PSPSARGE! Cool - that was a hoot, sitting on that big motorcycle. I've decided that it would be exceptionally wonderful to have state troopers on motorcycles along on every training ride, stopping traffic for us. Wish I knew which one you were at that stop! I love that loop out through Cornwall/Gretna - it's definitely one of my favorites. Do you ride in the area regularly?

We don't have the final numbers yet, but I do know we had about 550 pre-registered, and the estimate is approximately 800. Very nice participation.

Check the pics on www.digiproofs.com. Bill, I found you, Phil and I on there (page 6 - images #229, 230, 231, 241 & 242) on our way back in from the first loop, as well as a lot of other familiar faces. Fun looking through the shots if you have a little time.

Later,

Beth
