2008 Ride For Karen Rider Stories / Comments

Very well organized and very well marked. I really enjoyed the ride. Just one area of improvement. The lunch spot was easy to miss. I talked to somebody who did ride right by. I learned at the first break that there was an arena at the lunch spot. So I watched out for the arena, and saw one, so I turned back (just 20m) to the lunch spot.

Thanks again for great organization.

I will wear my 2008 RFK jersey and shorts with pride knowing I completed such a challenging ride and raised money for such worthwhile charities. Thank you for putting on such a wonderful event. I will be back next year with rain gear ready.

Kirk and Kris thank u for putting on such an amazing event. You two along with all the volunteers deserve all of the riders admiration for working so hard before, during, and after the event. I hope "Riding hard,building hope" provides some small inspiration to those children suffering the effect of cancer. Riding in the rain pales in comparison to what these children endure on a daily basis. Looking forward to next year. All the best

Kudos to Kris, Kirk, and their families, friends, numerous volunteers and sponsors for another well-organised event. You always seem to think of everything to make the day a memorable one.
I have participated in the 25K for 4 years now, and I have a better ride each year. Despite the rain, I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. It was my best ride. Although it's a ride and not a race, each year I look forward to training for this ride, as I'm only a recreational cyclist.
I look forward to 2009.
Thanks again for a great day!

What a great well-organized ride... even the hours and hours of rain couldn't keep this from being another excellent time.

A great cross-section of the cycling community, roadies, touring folks, triathletes, I got to gab with so many riders from all different backgrounds.

Congrats on pulling it off!
