I am going to step in and defend Tony. Notice that only the people who are complaining have done nothing to step up for club and help, with the exception of Dale Brown, whom I admire and respect for how he has grown the cycling community in Greensboro. Tony and a handful of others are trying to provide a friendly and safe cycling community and if that means having waivers to protect themselves then I respect that too. No one else was jumping up to be president or organize the weekly and weekend rides. Thank you Tony (and Dale) for everything you have done for the cycling community here in the triangle and for supporting your sponsors.
As for the "Trek Rides," when were they ever removed? They will be on our Google calendar AND are open to the public AND will still be listed on the "NEW" Gyros googlegroup. If you are so concerned about these rides, why not offer to lead to help keep them going? I have personally watched how much time Tony has put into this club and most of you don't even know the half of it, so before you complain, I challenge you to come spend a day with Tony and see what it takes to run the Gyros. I am proud to have Tony on our staff and wish we had more like him. Thanks again Tony.

It's unfortunate for the club that they got forced in this direction. There was absolutely nothing to be gained. You've split the cycling community so a self-appointed president can have insurance, and waivers and a race team. You've even managed to privatize or remove the "trek rides". Good job with that.

I was always impressed by their welcoming nature and good, well-organized rides. It seems things have changed. Careful that you don't collapse under the weight of your own self-importance.
