A Million Thanks

A Million Thanks

On its third year, the unabashed Siclista Classic is again a success. Without further due, we would like to recognize its constituents.

This year, Ramon, also known as (a.k.a) Jack Ibagbaga, is at the helm. He is responsible for duty delegation, resource procurement and logistical mapping. Rodge, a.k.a. Capitan, returns in a capacity as a tenured consultant to the incumbent. Capitan, with his remarkable leadership talent, envisioned this classic ride and led the first two events.

Of course, without the traffic marshals, SAG drivers and safety officers, the East Bay’s treacherous canyons and twisted hills will not be secured. Security and safety are some of the affair’s core competencies and without a doubt are implemented.

The generous donors, be it monetary, equipment and food, thanks a million. You made the word “feast” possible. The abundance of scrumptious food satisfied a peloton of calorie-hungry cyclists. In addition, raffle prizes as well as priceless awards add another dimension of excitement.

Last but not the least important one are the participants. You are our main motivation. We hope that you were best served. Recreational riders and King of the Mountain racers alike, we know that you put a lot of training miles to conquer Sierra. We appreciate your participation and competitive mindset.

Accept our gratitude and congratulations to you!
