Thank you for posting this article. Three of us looked at the website for this event a few weeks ago and saw the $50 not seeing that it was for a group of 4 riders. So much for reading the normal print. Eric and I will so be there. We will try to get others to join us for a good event for a good cause — for a fair price.
