"I don't get into the city much, so it was great to see Seattle from all angles in one ride."

"Good work. I am sure few know and appreciate the amount of work you put into this. Kudos to you. The ride was done very well, there were adequate stops for water and bathrooms, there was adequate food and even rewards at the end. And it raised awareness and a fair amount of money for a good cause. Good work and congratulations."

"The inaugural PROS ride in Seattle was a spectacular beginning for what I hope
will be an annual Labor Day ride for all. To experience Seattle by bike is not
to be missed as it is truly a jewel. We loved the unique neighborhoods, water
views & and oh so many hills" -- Scarlet
"The Ride was fun. I was surprised at how difficult it was." -- Darol
"I thought it was a beautiful route." -- Linda
"I thoroughly enjoyed the PROS ride in both it's beauty and challenge. Had I not been with such a supportive and concerned leader, I might have been intimidated not to push myself to undertake a ride with its considerable mileage and significant elevation gain. For more advanced riders it might not have been a challenge, but it was just right to push me a little further and harder. All in all an enjoyable and most rewarding experience."

"The ride was wonderful. I think everyone involved in planning, organizing, and leading did a wonderful job. I had a great time. What a great turnout. Shan, Arnie, JP, and the rest of the leaders in our
brisk group did a wonderful job. We had a very large group (50+).
The snacks and refreshments were great.
Thanks so much. I'm looking forward to it next year." -- Mike
"The ride yesterday was awesome." -- Allison
"Wonderful ride and great leaders.
Thanks so much." -- Barb
"I thought the ride was a big hit.
The route was beautiful and took us to deep into many neighborhoods the arterials only skirt...we really are blessed to live in such a beautiful city.
The food was unexpected...and appreciated...and was the best way to do it...(perhaps we could make a donation in the future) Stopping to eat at restaurants would have been too random, fragmented the group even further and delayed things even more."

"Wow what a great event! With the number of riders the brisk group had I'm
amazed how well the ride leaders did and kept everyone together. I was very
pleased with the route and the stops. Congratulations on a very successful
event. I can't wait for next years event!" --

"Let me add my congratulations for an artfully crafted ride. It really was amazing. I can easily imagine how many man-hours (oops maybe people-hours)
were put into designing and marking the course and preparing the cue sheets
and maps." -- Mark
"I cannot say enough thanks to all of you and to JP's friends who so generously helped support PROS. I heard so many compliments from many during and after the ride about ride organization from check in to the surprising lunch to the wonderful ending. I heard many promise to come back next year. JP, Yumi, Michelle and David's contribution of the rest stop gifts was very special. I heard so many expressions of awe at the ride course and the detail with which it was carefully planned.
Nor can I tell you how wowed most everyone was by the views, the road markings, the route choices and the friendliness of the riders and leaders.
Except for what 9-10 flats, and minor complaints about the frequency of stops, I heard virtually nothing but praise.
I would like to say to each of you that your hard work, thorough dedication, commitment and patience made this ride an outstanding event."
