I totally agree. Go Gabby Go!

Congratulations, azfiddle -- I think that is a great time! But you mentioned one of the reasons I'm not big on large organized events: the inexperienced cyclists. They do unpredictable things and can indeed cause accidents. Stopping right in the middle of the lane, weaving, etc. All that stuff makes me crazy, but I am glad to see people out there riding.
