It's been a crazy couple of weeks, but I'm finally catching up from the Breakdown and have lots of exciting news to share.

The 7th Annual Brown County Breakdown was our most successful event to date raising more than $23,000 for HMBA! That puts the grand total well over $80,000 since the inaugural 2005 event. We had close to 520 riders register and nearly 20 different states represented this year. The official event recap is now posted on the Breakdown website at http://www.browncountymountainbiking...011-recap.html.

Event photographs from 2 Pedals Photography are now available online as well as a 16-page, magazine style souvenir book. Go to www.2pedalsphotography.com and click on the Events page.

The date is set for the 8th Annual Brown County Breakdown, so mark your calendar now for the second weekend in October and join October 12-14, 2012.
