None of this happens because of one person's efforts. I do my job of waving the baton, but there's a lot of people who help out:
OHPV members Bill Stites, Lonnie Morse, John Climaldi, Edna Van Gundy, Joy Johnson, Keith and Alex Kohan for not only racing but pitching in with the little stuff that no one like doing, but needs doing anyway.
Todd Marley for helping with registration and for creating the drag race's Christmas tree.
Don Hoskinnson for helping to compile the results and create the awards.
All of the people who stepped up and helped count laps and watch the corners.
The homebuilders who devoted endless hours creating their own visions of the "ultimate HPV".
The racers who came from California, Pennsylvania, and Florida- what a trip!
Aaron Williams and the Electrathon organization for renting the track and then making it easy to put an event of this size together.
Portland Parks for making Memorial Day weekend a time to celebrate alternative vehicles.
The companies who donated items for the door prize drawing:
Mueller Windwrap fairings
Easy Racer bicycles
Zzipper Road fairings
Coventry Cycles and Heintz Neuman
Northwest Bicycles
East Side Cycles
River City Bicycles
Bike Gallery Bicycles
And a special thank you to my wife, Diane, who puts up with my annual nuttiness without complaint.
