There are a lot more of them. It is just a question of getting them online. If all those ride leaders who either place or have saved their rides on word or other documents would send them to me as an e-mail attachment, this can be done more easily. I also want to give credit where it is due as to who originally came up with the ride. If you have info as to that I would like to know.
