Just wanted to say "Thank You" to all those that made it out for the first

ever Summer Ride Fest. It sounded as if everyone had an awesome time. Allot

of my ride guides said it was the highlight of their summer so far, getting

to show people from all over the west coast a good time and our awesome

trails.



I felt it was huge success and was very happy with the atmosphere of the

overall event. We had a total of 39 riders plus 15 ride guides for three

excellent days of riding. Total miles of trail ridden for the weekend

between all the rides was 170 miles and we only scratched the surface.



A big thank you to all of our sponsors, Paul's Bicycle Way Of Life,

Webcyclery.com, Dirtrag Magazine, Clif Bar, Oakridge, McGillicudy's Outpost,

The Trailhead Coffee House, The Disciples Of Dirt mountain bike club and

Paul's MTB team.



People have been posting pictures on www.mtbr.com , go to the discussion

boards and then to the Singlespeed board to find them. If you came away with

any digital pictures you would like to share please forward them my way.



I hope you all make plans to join us next year for what is sure to become a

ongoing event for years to come.



Time To Ride,

Richard
