Thank You

[solobiker]

I just wanted to take this time to say thank you to everyone here. Thanks for all the support, all the laughs, the education, and the advice. This list could go on and on. I have learned a lot with my time spent with the lovely people here on TE and before this year comes to an end I just wanted to say THANKS!!! Have a great holiday season.

[Red Rock]

Yes I agree as well. I may not be a great poster but TE has become my other family. My husband is always asking if I am talking to someone online. He actually thought it was great with our xmas card exchange. Thankyou to all who participated. I have enjoyed recieving well wishes from all over.

As Solo has said, each of you has humored, educated, and motivated me to at least stay in shape when it is hard-working and trying to have a life. May you all have a safe Holiday Season.

This site is a bit like a soap on TV. If you miss watching several episodes, you can catch up as if you have missed nothing.

What I am trying to say, there is ALWAYS a welcome on TE.

Also, going slightly off on a tangent.

To all those on here who will spend Christmas alone for whatever reason, I wish you a special Merry Christmas and think that this is the kind of site where there are always people to help you feel less lonely.

Thank you, Clock. I'm home alone this Christmas, working too, but I did it to myself so I won't complain.

{Ahem, back on topic} I don't post much around here, but I visit here at least daily. The kindness and respect I find here are uplifting.

Oh, and DH enjoyed the Card Exchange as much as I did. He really liked creating the card display this year.

So thank you, TE members, you've made my life much better.

I, too, am not a big poster here, but I love the knowledge, support, and, most of all, respect everyone on here gives. TE has certainly made my world a better place since I found it. Thank you all

Another grateful soul here - giving thanks to the kind community of TE. You've gone above and beyond in answering my never-ending list of newbie questions, helping me to feel comfortable about learning to ride.

And beyond riding, truth is, I've come to enjoy the great company here. Your names and faces (ok, avatars ) have become a familiar part of my week.

Here's hoping 2009 is a happy, healthy year for us all!

Yes, Thank You to all My TE Friends. Sometimes you goof me up when you change avatars - so I got even and changed mine too just for fun

I've learned a bunch from you, found a place to laugh, a place to cry, a place for zen hugs, and a place to get virtual butterflies. I'm grateful for TE, and to Susan for hosting this big house party.

May we all have a terrific 2009 riding season!

I too am not a big poster on here, but I enjoy stopping by here for a visit and drink my coffee while catching up on the latest......gossip.
I've learned lots, whether about biking or life in general from this site..so best wishes to everyone and keep up the good work...

[Brandi]

There is a lot of love and caring here! Thank you all for your support through the tough times.
Namaste!

[jesvetmed]

I so agree! This sight has been supportive, uplifting, and informative, and downright a lot of fun. It's nice to be able to stop by here whenever I have time, and visit with "like-minded" people! We all have a lot in common, but are also so very different... it's what makes it fun!

Thanks to all -- and best wishes for the upcoming year!

[OakLeaf]

Thanks for being my virtual family.

Big holiday hugs.

[Grog]

Holiday hugs to all.

Thanks to all the lovely ladies (and to the occasional men) for such great companionship in cycling and beyond!

[Miranda]

TE is such a wonderful wealth of knowledge and support. Don't have very much of that in my real life bike life unfortunately. There have been many times I have been so glad I found TE. Best of holiday wishes.

[RoadRaven]

Been here at TE a while now and though this year has seen me logging in here less than in the past, I just have to keep coming back. Some pretty amazing people, some truly inspiring stories, some fantastic dry humour and some very useful ideas.

Thankyou women and men of TE for sharing your lives with me

Awhi-awhi for you all from Aotearoa
