UMC'03 IN REVIEW - UMC ridership in 2003 receded to 1999 levels; the number of gold-and-above level riders, and the total mileage ridden also decreased. However, roughly half of the mileage decrease is (sadly) due to fewer miles ridden by Luc Viau and Larry Schwartz. On a similar note, Open Century mileage actually grew, apart from the missing contributions of these two riders.
OPEN DIVISION THANKS! - We would especially like to thank David BUZZEE for managing the Open Standard division and Don NORVELLE for the Open Century division.
BREVETS AND RANDONNÉES - UMC participation remained roughly as it has for the past several years, but lower than in the previous PBP year (1999).
YEAR-END RIDING - Woody GRAHAM rode the Rural Ride 'Round the Islands. Crista BORRAS and Chuck WOOD rode Crista’s Cobb Island Century and Over the Hill with Dr. Disc, joined, variously, by Keith KROMBEL, Rudy HEWITT, and Chris MENTO.
Open Centuries - John Lee ELLIS (5), Christopher KAISER (2), Kevin KAISER (4), Jim KEHR (3), Tom O’KANE (1).
Open Standard - John Lee ELLIS (1).
Thanks to you all once again for sharing your rides with us this past year - and all the best to you for a great cycling season in 2004!
