What is the event?

This will be a memorial weekend for Tom Guaraldo. He tragically perished on June 22, 2008 from an accident while wheeling in CO. He was a close friend to many of us on the east coast and in Colorado. We will have stickers in remembrance of him on-site provided by Dave Smiley. If you are coming to attend the memorial ride, please bring a Toy for donation to Toys-for-Tots in his memory - that was Tom's favorite charity. He is the main reason most of us on the Red trails in RCPFA are now wearing helmets. RIP Tom.

The event will be held in Crozet, VA. Please check http://forums.xjsrule.com/viewtopic.php?t=119 for directions. For any questions regarding the event, please post up on the RCPFA forum ( www.rcpfa.com (http://www.rcpfa.com) ).

Alcohol is NOT PERMITTED during the trail rides. You may drink after you are done wheeling. Alcohol is permitted in the camping and bonfire area .

Let this be a reminder to us all to always wear our safety belts while wheeling. Those few extra seconds to buckle-up would have saved his life, and a whole lot of grief for his family and friends. We miss you Tom.

It is awesome. They can never go wrong with a commercial that is pro-military.
