• This event is not sponsored or sanctioned or anything else that would qualify it as an official event in the eyes of an official official
• If it's pouring on Saturday you can watch Tour de France highlights and pray for better weather. Rain date is Sunday
• qathet, which means "working together" in the language of the Tla'amin Nation, is the regional district of the upper Sunshine Coast. You're allowed to work together in a pace line... best to NOT ride side by side.
