Well, the 2019 SMC is in the books! Thanks to all that came out and rode. After a 1 year hiatus, this was a big effort from everyone in the club to bring this event back. We were happy to hear from many of you that you had an enjoyable ride. We’re also incredibly thankful that several of you chose our event for your first 100 mile ride!
Overall, we got a ton of feedback for next year, both positive and negative. We’ll absolutely be listening to your considerations when we plan the 2020 St. Mary’s Century.
Lastly, I want to thank all of the riders that came out and rode for riding safely throughout the day. I’m sure most of you saw me on the course at some point driving around with my hazards on, and I have to say I was extremely happy to see excellent riding from all of you. Safety is paramount at an event like this, and keeping the locals happy will help ensure that we can continue to hold this ride for years to come.
See you in 2020!
Jim – Pax Velo President
PS:
Lost and Found!! I was alerted that someone lost their camera during the ride between the 2nd and 3rd rest stop. If someone came across a Sony camera, please send us a message so that we can get it back to its owner.
