2008 Cirque du Cycling - Thanks for participating racers!

Thank you racers and volunteers who came out to this first year event on
Mississippi Avenue. The 2008 Cirque du Cycling presented by Laughing Planet
Café, was a huge success. We had 150 racers that participated within the two
different categories. Thanks for racing hard, and putting on a great show!

The event was a benefit for Self Enhancement, Inc. (SEI), a nonprofit
organization dedicated to guiding underserved youth to realize their full
potential.

We appreciate any feedback, and testimonials that we can pass along to
partners, sponsors and staff! Please send them my way.

Thanks for your support, look for dates of 2009's event this fall!
