Chris Powers, owner of the Busy Bee, really helped out with the afterparty. If you were wondering who you addressed and mailed that postcard to it was him, and he thanks you for it. And we thank him for helping out by sending him 120 postcards in the mail!!!! Thanks Chris!!!!!

Blair from Aviator hooked us up with some tastey beer for the afterparty

New Raleigh brought alot of attention to the race when they posted about it

Urban Velo supplied us with some internet press and mags

Bens Cycle gave us plenty of amazing prizes

Cafe Helios and Raleigh Times donated gift cards

Thien, Smedium, and Spclgst came through with the music for the afterparty

Adam from Ahpeele really helped us out by not only letting us use his spot for the afterparty but he also allowed us to screen print the manifest. Be sure to check out his store and be on the lookout for upcoming events at his space.

A special thanks is in order for Sean O'neal who graceously donated his time and motorcycle sidecar for filming the race. Sean pushed it to the limit so I could get some amazing shots and his motorcyle paid the price. About an hour into the race a hose melted and brought the beast to a stop. Sean was more worried about getting the rest of the race filmed than he was about his bike. Lucky for us Paxton was nearby with his scooter, told me to hop on the back and the filming continued. Thanks again Sean for making this race so much fun for everyone.

Paxton really came through with his scooter for the entire second half of the race. Thanks again brother!!!

We'll have both photo stops posted online soon so check back soon for those.

Thanks again to all the riders that came out and made the Raleigh Cat the biggest race in Raleigh history!!!!!

You guys fucking rock!
