I had not done this ride before this year, so do not have a basis for comparison. There was a fairly good bunch today. Did anyone get a semi-official count? I would guess around 200?

According to Jim the release forms had ~180 signatures. So 200 is probably a reasonable estimate. By all accounts it was larger than last year's.

I was guessing 200-300 people. It was a big crowd for a cold day (~33F). Somebody must have shot video.

A bit of video at the start. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-DtZMth5FQE I also have a few minutes of fuzzy (out of focus) rear video approaching and crossing the West End Bridge. http://youtu.be/4LuUff4inF8

release forms? #whoops (that's what I get for being late); great showing this year.
