I led the first Seacoast Sport Cycle ride in May of 2005. Eleven years ago. Seems hard to believe!
I want to thank each and everyone of you who has joined us for these many years on more rides than I can count. We've have great weather and snow. Seen some fun stuff like the Trebuchet in Greenfield. Eaten some great meals together and had a lot of laughter and a bit of drama. Everything you might expect and plenty that you wouldn't.
I'd like to call out Rob, Terry, Kenn, Eric and Sam for their duties as sweep. both recently and years and years ago!
And too many others to name but be sure that if you were on a Seacoast Ride, I'm grateful for your skill, patience, humor and company!
I also want to thank Seacoast and the whole team for their support of these rides. They were there on Sunday's to open up even when they were closed. They bought us lunches and even admission to the track for the Ride To The Races. I really feel lucky that I'm so close to such a great organization.
I'm hanging up my Garmin and looking to take a mid-pack or 'sweep' position from now on! I am hoping that someone will take the reins and I am happy to help the next Ride Leader get started in any way possible. Jim at Seacoast assures me that he'll continue to support these rides and he's always open to creative ideas.
So...who has some fresh rides or cool things to do? Let me know your interest and I'll help get you started!
Once again, thanks to all of you. It's been a great run!
