Ellijay/Tour De Georgia was a success

Well the trip is almost over, it is Sunday morning at 1:30 am. Half the crew is downstairs in the lobby getting a good drunk on and the other half is sleeping and will be leaving early am to get back home. The drunks and myself, after lots of beating on doors to get the drunks up, will be heading out into the freeze warning weather for our last mtn. ride at river loop. The temp is going to be hovering around 32' and we will even have some small river crossings. Brrrr.

The Tour will end Sunday at Alpharetta around 6pm so we will all miss it, however we will be cheering for team Discovery to pull it off. They have a 1'11" lead going into the last stage for team results and Lance is in 5th place overall. I hope that everyone that came on the trip had a great time and we will begin plans for next year soon. I want to give a special thanks to Matt Foxenberger for helping with the shuttle runs and to Manny, Joe, Jodi, Chad, and Tim for staying behind to run the shop, and to everyone on the trip for coming and joining CBE for this adventure.

I would like to get feedback from anyone that is interested in doing a trip next year as to weather they would prefer another trip to the Tour/mtn. in Georgia, North Carolina, or out west to Colorado or Las Vegas. We have a year to plan, but the sooner we start the better.

Thank you,

David
