[GRRiders] They're off

[Joe Goldrush]

With the Delta breeze at their back, 100 Randonneurs pedaled North towards 
Goose Lake Oregon at 6:04pm on their quest for the gold. Among them were 16 
GRRizzlies, seasoned Gold Rush riders, who'll show them the way and give 
them a boost if they falter along on the route. Seven riders flew in from 
across the Pond, three from Germany, two from Finland and two from Sweden. 
As I visited with Ove Nillson this morning, he mentioned he'd never been in 
heat like this in his life. What a challenge these 4 days will be for the 
Northern Europeans!

More to come!
