Well Said All,
And Johnny V- good job on the apology. We all make mistakes (or do things
that piss other people off) and our country has a bad habit of character
assassination (e.g. witch hunts) and expulsion (i.e. prison) rather than
recruiting others to act upon higher intent.
In order to thrive, OBRA needs to have events where anyone can come to a
race and feel like they can belong, have fun, & ride bikes. Let's let those
who break our rules understand their mistakes and atone by making the
community stronger.

P.S. Suggestion: PEAR homeless youth program had some kids involved in the
past- get them your support!
