Good morning everyone. I'm late posting my thoughts on the WGC.:rolleyes: We stayed another night in Cambridge, and followed the tornadoes through the Norfolk/Hampton Roads area coming back last night. We had planned to stay a couple of extra days and do our own riding through Blackwater, but the weather was just too bad. We did do a drive through the area, and a return visit to the Visitor's Center. We had an opportunity to see the eagles again, and the ospreys (who have another egg since yesterday). We saw loads of herons and egrets too! :D
It was great meeting all of you! After all this time of posting in the forum, it's great to put faces to names! Maybe next time we can actually have a chance to chat!
My SO and I did the 25 mile ride. This was my first *official* ride since the accident last year. I was thrilled to be able to do it! Realistically, my thoughts about the ride are colored quite a bit by the fact that I almost wasn't able to do any more riding. I think I've proved that doctor wrong on a number of levels. Anyway, the ride... It probably could have been marked a little better:rolleyes:, and they probably could have ordered better weather...;) but I thought, for Terry's inaugural WGC ride, it turned out great! Blackwater Wildlife Refuge is an awesome experience, and WE helped Georgena raise over $18,000 for the Refuge! Most awesome!

I would encourage all of you to go to the Terry Bicycles forums and post your thoughts & suggestions there. That way Georgena will see them (she reads and replies often) and give them the consideration necessary.
On another note, IFJane's wedding was the MOST fun wedding I've ever attended! Of course, I dropped my kazoo... so had to hum the wedding march!:p
Congratulations, Jeannie, that had to be one very satisfying ride for you :D You and withm are right, it is terrific that so much money was raised and I'm sure changes will be made to improve next year's event. We'll just have to figure out how to guarantee sunshine!
(Sorry I didn't stick around to chat when we met up, I had a very sudden need to get to the end of the ride, if you know what I mean (and didn't even make it that far) :rolleyes: )
;) Don't worry Kali, we totally understood! And, yes, it was most satisfying.:DQuote:

Did any of you see any of the enormous bald eagle nests? I got a photo of one that looked like it was the size of a Volkswagen! See it here:
Tour de Chesapeake
It's cool that so many TE'ers were able to meet and ride and paddle together.
Picked it up?????Quote:

Take another look, I did not specify that you'd picked it up from me. I'm quite sure there's nothing I could teach you about any sport ;)Quote:
