Looks great. I'm so sad I missed it :(

When I try to look at the women's map, it only loads half of it, even after refreshing. Any idea what's up?

Many many thanks to GVOC and all the organizers and volunteers. Every year we get new maps and new exiting events.
Here are my favorites this year:

* Sprint at the Olympic village center in downtown Vancouver.
* Presentation by Mike Rascher - Olympic gold medalist in rowing from 1992 games in Barcelona. Inspirational and motivational story told first hand and the only chance I'll get to hold an olympic gold medal :) )
* WRE sprint race.
* Mass start race with Spiderman in the soking wet and cold Minoru Park. Here is a link with video (copied from Patric's AP videos thread) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2e-NheQADrc
* The traditional setup and chase sprints.

Thanks again for a great weekend.
