I have not read the reports of the other sectors but my experience in 
Ottawa was that those who participated were , in the main, club members 
from Ottawa who were " encouraged". The exceptions were Mike Powley who 
was enroute PEI for a wedding and who made a great effort to do a number 
of legs along the road. The other addition was a family from upstate NY 
who were on a holiday.

I hate to say it but the concept of a linked tour around the continent 
needs revisiting. There will be sectors that attract numbers of folks 
depending on the time of year and those that 
don't-Why?-cost-timing-vehicle availability-competing club events etc.

I very much enjoyed in being involved from the beginning and would like 
to publicly congratulate Bob, Fazal, Greg and Jamie for their insight, 
enthusiasm and consistent dedication.
