Andrea Koenig, Denver, Colorado, USA outbound at the Byers control
Andrea, a local Rocky Mountain Cycling Club rider, is the closest we may ever get to a native of the course. She grew up in Yuma, Colorado, 32 miles north of Joes (on the route between Cope and Idalia). It's over an hour of driving according to Google maps, but when the north wind and dust storms whipped up on Friday morning her dad made a last minute decision to come down to do whatever he could, and made it in half an hour. Excited, or does he always drive that way?

Sharon and Vickie of the Lone Star Randonneurs were the last ones to arrive in town as mentioned earlier. We sure are glad they made it!
