Re: [RBW] How was your PBP?
You can search for RUSA permanents on the RUSA.org site. There are 2500+ of them out there so there's bound to be one in your area.

Re: [RBW] How was your PBP?
Eric (Norris) - do you have any RUSA permanents in your neck of the woods that you ride to prepare for PBP?

Re: [RBW] How was your PBP?
Haha. I misread the subject line a few times as How was your PBH? My thought was Well, sir that is none of your business! :) For clarification, I didn't ride PBP (congrats to those who did - what an experience and accomplishment!), and my PBH is fine, thank you very much.
