Dear SIBA,

Sorry I took so long to send this...

Thank you for another WONDERFUL Pumpkin Patch Pedal Ride! I have been participating in this event for years, always the best tour around. Thanks for controlling the weather too, this year you really got us a fantastic day. I LOVED the new route, I rode the 100 mile ride, totally beautiful scenic views. The rest stops had plenty of great food choices + friendly happy SIBA members. You never cheapen it like some other bike clubs have done.
I can't imagine how much effort + planning this event requires but I TOTALLY APPRECIATE IT. Some of the free form pumpkin road markings were quite creative! Still don't know how you managed to find so many newly paved roads for us to enjoy riding on.
Just two tiny requests.....

Where did you buy the bagels?
They are great + I would like to become one of their customers.
Any chance you could produce your fabulous long sleeve shirt in a BLACK V-NECK?
I have nearly worn out my old black + gray crew necks.
The Pumpkin Patch Pedal running down the sleeve is cool too.


Thank you again for a super wonderful day bringing out the nicest group of people around. See you next year, if not sooner. I may just have to join your great organization yet.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN
... Linda

PS would love it if you could email me the bagel shop info.

Thanks for another great Pumpkin Patch bike ride!! It was perfect, right down to the weather. We liked the cue sheets this year that folded crosswise into neat sections instead of just a long list of directions that you had to keep folding and turning. It seemed like a lot more people stayed to listen to the music and eat lunch too. Your volunteers are always so pleasant and cheerful. We're looking forward to next year's Pumpkin Patch!

Yesterday i rode the Century ride at the Pumpkin Patch Pedal and just thought i would extend my thanks to all who were involved before, during, and after this great ride. The weather was perfect, the roads were well marked (loved the huge bicycles and pumpkin pics), and the volunteers were friendly and helpful - especially the ones at the pie rest stop. Thanks for a wonderful day!!! See you next year,

Just wanted to let you know that I'm glad I did my first century at your event yesterday. Everything was great. The route was clearly marked, the rest stops and food were perfect, the scenery was varied and beautiful and the people were great.
