Tony, yes thanks for your help in the ride (and Ken & Liz & Andrew & everyone else). I thought the ride ride was great. On most of the past rides I've felt like there were things I wish we had handled better, such as pacing or route planning, etc. but on this ride I thought everything went like a well oiled machine, very smooth.
I think the primary concern going forward is promotion. I think we are ready to handle bigger turnouts. I am going to start a new discussion titled "Promoting rides" where I list what we've done so far and solicit additional ideas to get our rides promoted. Please everyone think about this and make suggestions. Even better if you can help directly with doing promotion.
