This is great, I love the new ideas rolling in, keep throwing out some suggestions, then we can implement some. This needs to be the an event first and also a great race within a great and fun event.
I also think that if you are using valuable family vacation time, that we should think about things for wives and kids; such as pool parties for them while the racers are on the water or inflatable bounce houses on beach, or a pile of longboards to use at stops.......
If we are using vacation time, it should be a vacation also.
Any ideas?
