And as I am cleaning up the remnants
of follow up tasks. I have to say thank you.

Thank you to the Volunteers - You make what we do look easy and are the envy of every race organizer in Alberta ! Or at least I feel you should be.

Thank you to the fans - from the early morning to the mid afternoon and through a "little bit of rain" You are the ones that add to the event and make sure the racers give that little extra.

To the racers - Thank you. Some are just the first timers, some have been here to as many as I have. You give us thrills and chills (I can do without spills and happy you are doing alright) .

My bosses - Thank you for letting me be the boss for the weekend. You can have it back for the rest of the year.

Thank you,
Bob
