Hello Obra-ites,



My wife and kids came to watch the race at PIR last night. As they were

walking towards the stands, and just beginning to cross the road, a car

approached. Rather than yielding, this person honked their horn and blew

by. This was most likely a cat 5 person because they were leaving just

before 7:00, bike in tow.



My wife was a little miffed, and called this person a name under her breath.

My 5 year old daughter, who doesn't miss much, asked her:



"Mommy, why did you call that man a casserole?"



So, Mr. Casserole, please drive courteously when leaving PIR. A fairly good

rule of thumb:

- On bike: race.

- In car: no race.



Most folks that have been around for a while drive very cautiously after a

race. There are cyclists, fans, and yes even KIDS running around. I would

prefer mine did not get squished by Mr. Casserole or any of his peers.



So remember -- Go fast on the bike, slow in the car (until you're out of the

park).



Thank you in advance for slowing down and driving courteously.



Regards,

Erik Voldengen
