Very Impressed !
My recent last ride at FATS I took a really hard fall . I had to realign the handle bars and the seat . I was scraped up a little and had pine straw and clumps of dirt in my helmet visor . The thing that really impressed me was one of the SORBA members came along shortly after and took one look and asked if I was alright ? I looked a lot worse than it was . I assured him I was ok and slowly walked my bike toward the South Trail Head . He turned his bike around and followed me all the way to make sure I actually made it to the parking lot ! He did not have to do that but went out of his way .
Additionally, recently got the chance for the first time , to meet several SORBA members out on the trail while they were on a small group ride . Great bunch of people ! Talked and talked about Mt Biking ! Enjoyed the conversations . My whole image of the local SORBA was a little distorted solely based on reading the forums . But after meeting them face to face and talking to them in person about our mutual love of Mt Biking and of their philosopy and ideas they are trying to implement, I was totaly impressed !
My hats off to the local CSRA SORBA !
Sincerely
Charles Garner
