Somehow we managed to struggle through all the little set backs in our first year and pull this thing together!  I have to give thanx to all those who helped put this together but most of all I would like to thank all those who came out and joined our "little" ride! There were almost twice as many riders as I expected for the first year. I value all the feedback and hope that we can improve for next year. Here are a few quotes from the riders........

"I had a great time. A very well orginized event, and what a great place to ride. If it's happening again next year count me in."  rickenbacker

"I loved it! Did the B route and it was awesome! Great work guys...I will be up for it again next year." hawk

"The dust was sweet." rocketman

"One word to sum it all! AWESOME!! drzsms

"As for future changes? Be prepared for more people next year! Word spreads." dooveman

"Thanks to Chris, Greg and the rest of the Loose Screw Team. Two Thumbs Up on a ride well done." tomcycle

"Man, what a great ride weekend. I loved the "A" course, especially trying to follow 3 crazy South Africans (cronkers?) down the Loose Screw Trail. Will definately be back next year." orange crush 

"Thanks so much to the guys who organized this event. I had a great time on the C route despite getting lost and racking up 289 kilometers. The weather was great for the ride and the hospitality and food was awesome." tom thumb

Yes it was a lot of work, but......., feedback like this is what drives me to do it again. I sincerely enjoyed meeting everyone and hope to see you all again next year. If you have photos Please send them to me. I will put as many as I can on the site as time allows. Even as I am still wrapping up from this year my brain is already thinking about next year and some of the possible changes. I must be the one with a Loose Screw!!
