09/19/2023  Starting the ride on a hill was not a good idea! Also, Ride with GPS didn't work unless you had a paid account, which only one person on my team had. I've used Ride with GPS for other events without having a paid account. The speaking part of the program was excellent. There were a lot of riders still coming in while the speaking was going on. It's too bad those riders had to miss it.

09/29/2023  My donation page amount is incorrect since I brought a $250 check from my school - Malden Catholic H.S. - and that amount has not been credited yet, as of 9/28.
09/19/2023  I understand there was a last minute change in the management of the ride. I can't imagine how hard it was to step in late. YOU DID A GREAT JOB! I provided a lot of comments to help improve things but overall it was a great day.
10/24/2023  Finding a cure and supporting the ALS community is my lifelong mission. This ride has done great work in the past in raising funds and also has the potential to be a year-long support and awareness catalyst. With this in mind, I am committed to its success and growth not just in raising funds but in generating good will across the ALS community through cycling.

09/21/2023  You used Ride with GPS to navigate the routes. However, when I clicked on the navigate tab it asked for a $60 fee to activate the navigate function. It seems you needed the upgraded version to make it work which I did not have. So, I was grateful the road signage was great this year. It would be nice to know the approximate speed others ride so maybe they could ride together.
09/20/2023  Overall, this was a very positive experience for me and my team. Keep up the good work!
09/26/2023  The fundraising page on the website needs to have the ability to increase the minimum level. It was brought to my attention by another participant, that as soon as she reached her mandated minimum her donors stopped making contributions. She could have easily doubled her donations if her supporters thought she was going to fall short of her goal.
