More photos, Roadie Volunteers

Jan blogging today.  Thank you to Lori & Nicolas for their excellent blogs and insights to our week on the road.  If you are interested in joining us next year, for this fun filled week of adult summer camp, but aren’t a rider, please consider being a Roadie.  550 Roadies are needed to support the cyclists.  This year there were 2,225 of those smiling, pedaling, fundraising, spirited cyclists, who are all very appreciative of the Roadies.
