all,

just wanted to send out a hearty thanks to each and every one of you for coming out to renegade this season.  over 150 different folks were there across 9 weeks.  we averaged over 60 folks a night through the season.  folks are more excited for cross than ever, and it shows!  i certainly enjoyed the scene each week, and the stories folks had from each nights events.  thanks again to each of you!!

in addition to all the 'racers', i HAVE to give credit to a handful of folks.   not only did these dudes help put the courses together, they also did things like CREATE THIS site (scotty), find sponsorship (corcoran), organize clinics (jesse).....simply put,  these guys are the reason you had super fun courses to ride each and every week, without fail.  buy them a beer.  or a cheeseburger. or both, next time you see 'em.  it's because of them, not me, that this renegade thing was smooth each week.

still a TON of great racing right here in iowa.  spooky, state cross, remaining dice series races, jingle cross.  enjoy 'em all.  see you out there.

and see you at RENEGADE in 2010.  can't wait!
