Jay, I'm the other Riv rider you rode with on the 7th and I plan on doing a full series as well this year. Are you riding the Fleche in April ? I've seen another Riv rider here in Greensboro but I have not met up with him yet... If you get a Riv Ride set up you can count on at least one from GS

Hi There, I'm usually not a big poster to the list, but do love seeing what's going on in Riv-land. I live in Asheville, and know of at least two other folks that are on the list that live here. A few months ago, I was on a ride with my wife (she has a blue ram and I have an orange one) in Marsh
