Hey gang,

Sorry to report that our son Jackson is back in the hospital and again, I have to cancel this weekend’s tour.  All ride tickets sold for the ride have been refunded and the event site has been taken down along with cancellation of the Facebook and Chainlink pages.

Sadly, this was our last tour of the year so I won’t have a make-up date for this ride until the Spring.  Hopefully the time in the hospital will at least give me a chance to write a bit, an activity, like riding, that has been in short supply lately.  Even better, hopefully he gets out of here quickly so I don’t even get the chance.

All the best to all of you.
