[Nfb-idaho] Cycle for Independence

[Brett Winches]

Had a ball even with the aches today!  Perhaps some signage directing folks where to go in the parking lots, but Mary Symns came to Marie's rescue.

Thank you to all the members of the Treasure Valley Chapter who rode and worked.  We had another wonderful Cycle for Independence today.  We will have figures together for the next chapter meeting May 26.
To those in other chapters, we had somewhere around 440 riders; wonderful support from Lions, hams, Nordic ski patrol on first aid, and many other volunteers.  I think we had 11 blind people riding the back of tandem bikes. 
These riders are all very nice.  It continues to amaze me that we can have nearly 500 people who are pleasant and do not complain or whine about anything.  The weather was perfect, but the people were even better.

Thank you to all who helped and rode.  Those from out of town consider joining us next year!
Ramona
