Thanks from Oregon!
For me the best thing about this year was no schedule and the smaller crowd. Reminded me of years past.
I made it a goal to meet and talk with everyone this year. If I had those three days I might of even completed my goal. The openness to allow anyone or group to do what they want. Just the freedom to do what you want with no rush to complete or start something in unfavorable conditions (mid afternoon). I waited for the winds to smooth out each day and didn't feel forced to ride in conditions that suck (or blow). Overall, a great trip!
I got to introduce the joy of the desert to a local from Seaside and he'll be back for sure. A big THANK YOU to the organizers (specifically Dean and Claxton and others behind the scene).
Maybe a direct line to the weather service for next year. Who thought that the desert would get nearly an inch of rain in April? I know I didn't!
Oh yeah, Thanks for the awesome grub Dave and Mike. You guys are the best!
