Thanks for putting this great program together.
We have some extra wheels: mountain and road, front and rear. Would you be able to use them?

So proud of my little brother and what he has accomplished. I have had the pleasure of watching Shawn race since he started at age 5. Good Luck in London.

We’ll be cheering for Shawn from his old stomping grounds back here in Boise, Idaho. He’s going to be awesome!

We are very proud of Shawn and wish him the best of luck at the worlds. As a first-year factory team, we went after riders that have a positive attitude on and off the track. Shawn has represented our team very well and is a very vital part this program.

Comment on Jacks Peak Park, rare native Monterey Pine forest: An oasis at risk by Abby Foss

Abby Foss — Thu, 03 May 2012 21:45:22 +0000

Talk of introducing the public to the woodsie environment – as they whiz among the tree tops – is sheer nonsense. If visitors want to get up close and personal with nature, let them walk on two feet–or four, if they can ride a horse. Greed doesn’t have to surface in every beautiful, quiet, spiritual place. Commercialism has already engulfed Laguna Seca. If there must be a zipline, let it rest there. But why should there be a zipline at all? Consider not just the zipline but the accompanying traffic, noise, building, etc. Such a project would completely destroy the nature of the Jacks Peak neighborhood and the mouth of Carmel Valley.

I am in Prunedale & have two road bikes to donate that have been in storage for a long time. With minor maintenance they would be good for riding.

Comment on CA Springtime Protest Pedal to Stop Distracted Driving by Graham Turner

Best of British luck for the ride Bob, distracted driving is a worldwide curse and needs to be stopped. I know the route you are doing well, having travelled it myself. I wish I could join you, but I will be thinking of you. I’m certain Eric would be proud.

Thanks for mentioning us, we are quite proud to have our hotel and outlets endorsing your HER Helmet Thursday project! We just wanted to make sure everyone was aware that we no longer have the Duck Club Grill or Schooners Bistro on the Bay here at our hotel. We have since closed the Duck Club and consolidated our dining/bar areas into the newly formed Schooners Coastal Kitchen and Bar. We have an entirely new menu, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and also plenty of architectural renovations. If you haven’t already, come down and check it out! Same great views, totally new dining experience!

Thanks.
