a great many thanks go out to the following individuals and groups
for their
contributions to "the lifestyle" and to the realization of my
dream(s):
Todd "Big Timber" Nordmeyer for being my sounding board and my
compass...my
peeps @ G.Fondo (and those who once were) for all the last minute
fixes, the
laughs, and the cookies...my groupies, Ramsey & Jo Ellyn ; )
...the
Nashville Cycling community @ large for the support and
camaraderie...Johnny
for ridin' tailgunner on those 20+ MPH 5 hour death
marches...Subway-Express
for the opportunity in '04 and Jittery-Joe's/Kalahari in '05...my
editor for
his patience and for the T.A.B.'s that greet @ ride's end...fido for
the
officespace/wireless and the "talent"...Mom & Dad for upholding your
end of
the deal and providing me w/ the necessary support, i love you
guys...and
last but certainly not least, to "Max" for your unmatched generosity
and
enthusiasm, without it i'd probably be off using my degree (and
where's the
fun in that? ; )
all the best in '05!
