Some Statistics and many thanks



I must thank Jacqueline Zimmermann an ACC in Riverside California who has been a great support throughout the whole tour. Jax has handled phone calls, made appointments, visited camps, ridden in some of the toughest conditions and all in support of me, this tour and the children who benefit. She is an extremely capable ACT! consultant and a wonderful person. Thanks a million Jax.
I also want to say a huge thanks to Bob and Dan Ogden of Swiftpage for their sponsorship and featuring my tour on their exhibition stand in Washington DC. I use Swiftpage and they are the most helpful company one can imagine. Thanks again guys.

erm, 1 statistic not mentioned, and one of great interest to us all. Just how many speeding tickets, in how many states :)

1 in texas fleeing a Mack truck and 1 in upstate NY fleeing a Kenworth truck. The word most likely to describe a North American policeman? LURKING.
