[GRRiders] GRR Update #9

[Joe Goldrush]

The phone has not stopped ringing...

Donn King reports that the last rider through the Tobin control on the 
Feather River left at 7:30am. Daniel Kincaid 45 from Sparks Nevada has 
retired from the ride and returned to Oroville. This leaves 96 riders on the 
road.

The first rider Keith Fraser from Vancouver BC arrived at Taylorsville at 
6:15am and left at 6:37am. He was closely followed by 12 other riders who 
all left before 8am. Michael Tigges and Susan Jacobsen are busy preparing 
breakfast at the Taylorsville Grange for the upcoming riders who are on a 
more leisurely pace. Don Main from Fayetteville Georgia who had to retire 
from the ride due to a mechanical is now heading towards Taylorsville in a 
reliable vehicle to help out Mike and Susan at Taylorsville. Thanks Don!

Sean Buehler called in from Susanville to report they are ready for the 
riders coming from Taylorsville.

Daryn Dodge called in from Alturas with reports of beautiful weather and a 
South wind blowing.  Riders will appreciate the tailwind as they head up 395 
later today.
