Above is the list of founding EDRA members. Take a good look at it. I just did, and I will tell u what I thought about this list when I looked at it. To start, they together have been, are now and likely will be for some time the folk who “git er done” on all levels of endurance. They excel at riding, ride managing,mentoring, volunteering, group leaders and just about anything required to make endurance work. They are the straw that stirs the drink that is endurance. ( not to say they are the only ones, don’t want to offend)
They are people who get things done, in endurance and out. Together (along with a growing group of good folk) are determined to build this EDRA group into a well organized, all contributing and all enjoying group of endurance riders, ride managers and volunteers that will get together and compete in the sport that is the passion of them all.
When I hear noise about “how over their head they are” with regard to the EDRA startup I have to grin. Again, take a real look at that group, over their head- really? My crystal ball is in the shop so I will make no predictions precisely how and when EDRA will be up and thriving (and having a great time together with it!) but read my lips- these folks are the kind I will hitch my wagon to, anytime. They will “git er done!”
