Hey,

Willamette is Back to Stay!

Thanks to Sal Collura for being my partner in this epic adventure ( great
Job!) and thanks Candi and Kenji----or is that Kenji and Candi---- for the
support to bring this back and in any case WILLAMETTE is Back and for the
213 that came to this rain drenched event you will dominate the rest of the
season when the sun is shinning all the time. Thanks to all of the officials
and especially Terri Camp and to all the other people involved in this
event. Special Shout out to Today's Stage Winner in the pro, 1,2 men Seamus
McGrath from BC ( Mountain bike Pro) and to all of the other riders, local
and out of state who came to this event. Thanks to fullcycles.com of
Corvallis and Hutch's of Eugene and Collins cycle shop for the stage sponsor
support. I can't think to much---and need to rest and get back in the woods
with my little friends (woodland creatures) and cut down some tree's for the
Mudslinger 10K and Peak Sports Mudslinger on 4/20.

I hope to see you all again on the road at Table Rock on 5/4

P.S maybe since it rained 2 out of 4 days we will have a dry
Mudslinger------maybe

Mike
