i heart crmbt

Remember when we rode our bikes through Colorado? That was awesome! Just got home from the sixth annual CRMBT. It just keeps getting better! I have to thank the organizers, Peter & Hillary, Kevin & Anne and all of the volunteers who do so much to feed us, keep us safe and on the right road, and always have a smile and some encouragement for this group that would willingly do this to themselves.

Theo and his boys make Sherpaville the place to be whether you're staying there or not. It really is a home away from home. Scott, the bike mechanic, fixed flats and other mechanicals, so we could keep on riding. The caterers always had a smile and a greeting. And the other riders, some who have been there many times, and some who joined this tour for the first time, what a great group of people to hang out with, eat with, laugh with, and commiserate with each evening.

My body is sore, but my jaw works great. I haven't been able to shut up about what a great time I had. My wife has been very patient, but I'll need to share stories and pictures with you over the next couple weeks so her patience doesn't run thin. Check back with me while I relive the tour from the trip out to Colorado, all the way to the finish in Pagosa Springs.

If you think this sounds like fun, come join us in Colorado next year!
