Thank you so much for all the pictures that are posted here!!   It really gives us a feel for what our racers are seeing!  It is an astoundingly beautiful country we live in and we especially love to see it from the riders perspective!!   Can't wait to hear the stories!!

We are deeply saddened at the loss of Dave Blumenthal.  He touched our lives so much these past two weeks and we didn't know him personally.  But came to know, very quickly,  what a wonderful, sensitive, kind man he was and still is!!  We were blessed to watch his amazing stamina and listen to his callins that were so fun and informative.  Our hearts go out to his wife, daughter and family.  May the Good Lord Bless and keep you.

Our prayers are with the family and ALL of the riders for a safe journey.
Warmly,
The Prestons'  (Dave Preston's parents)  Our Dave loved riding with him.

Our hearts go out Dave B.    Our love to him and his family, we feel so bad and so sorry this has happened!!. We pray for a complete and speedy recovery!!  

This race and the racers has been so amazing to watch and keep track of including our Dave!  Many warm wishes to all and be safe!!
