Your Ride Leaders
This "Just For Fun" FREE event has many moving pieces and Jamie and I love putting on this event. However, I would be delusional to think we could run this great event ourselves. We have a great group of folks that make this event so much fun. Meet the team. Take a moment to thank them if you are out riding with them.
