Hey all you Freewheelers, I wanted to thank you emphatically for doing such a great job putting on the RATL series! I'm in my first racing season and your crits are making it even more fun than I anticipated. The Freewheelers I've met have all been a pleasure to socialize with, too. You have a good club and a good event, and should be proud of what you're doing for the otherwise rather desolate racing community here in NEO. I hope you don't mind if I make two suggestions, though: 1) Please have more folks at the registration table. I got no warmup time either of the first two races because of the lines (and because someone lost my paperwork before RATL#2, so I had to fill it all out again). 2) Make results available faster. Those of us who have goals other than winning a trophy – specifically in my case, making top 10 – have to wait for many days to see how we've done. To the extent that those are criticisms, though, I intend them constructively. Thanks again, and I'll see you Saturday.
Cheers,
Jim Nichols Cleveland Heights
