Thanks to everyone who came, supported, volunteered, and participated in the Lucky Cat. Everyone combined to make it a big success. This years course came in between 18-25 miles depending on your route and had a few familiar challenges in addition to some new twists. We had people from Bham, Florence, Greensboro, and as far away as Ohio. NIce! I met a lot of really great new people and plan on paying it forward in the near future. Opinions varied on this years event but overall I think people felt it was better than last years race. We upped the mileage and threw in more twists. Handling skills payed a fair role this year as well as speed and a bit of luck (davis). The overall winner was a great great guy Josh Driskell from Florence who, this is embarrassing to say, won by almost 8-minutes. Thanks to Chrome Messenger bags, Olde Towne Brewery, UrbanVelo, Mellow Mushroom PIzza, Art & Soul Tattoo, Chris's mom, and Bicycles Etc for the support. Thanks to Tyler, Leela, Janet, Jim, and everyone who helped with pics. Here's a few of them:

Not your typical alleycat trophy but oh so much better. Thanks to Chris's mom for hand making this incredible quilt for the first overall winner. It turned out so perfect and josh has already said it will be an heirloom.

What an awesome turnout and a lot of fun. I didn't race, just hung out, but there was a lot of effort and time put into it. Prizes, beer, music, location, planning ... lots of hard work and a great event.
