I've followed your athletic endeavors with awe, and enjoyed watching you compete at UltraMan World Championships in 2012 when Mike was racing! Always great to cheer on another Canuck! :) Thanks Tony!

I remember your team passing me just before McHenry, so you must have passed through Grantsville just prior to the parade starting. It was interesting going through town following the parade with all the people on the streets and whatnot! Too funny Michael!

Well done from Team Generali Race Around Ireland... Funny story to about the Grantsville parade you mention.... I was on the bike for our team entering the town, we weren't stopped for the parade but as I entered the main street it was line with spectators which for a brief moment I thought it was for the RAAM competitors...had no idea about any parade and when no one stood up or cheered I quickly gathered I was just another cyclist and kept head down to hide the disappointment!
