The CIE crew did a fantastic job pulling this event off .The weather was marginal and they didnt cave.My family and quests enjoyed the riders. Special thanx to Ricky G and Mike Schwene for the extra time they spent talking with our friends . All in all it was a great three days looking forward to next year!!!!! Thanx Joe

whens a good time to start booking a hotel room for next year?

Such a sick event even with the crappy water.

Couldn't agree more, with everyone above. I watched the D-up finals from Racer #'5's boat like 50' from the double up. First time I have ever been that close, absolutely amazing. That was my favorite part of the whole weekend. (Thanks again Mike). Awesome event CIE (and all the sponsors). We had a great time, already counting the days until next year.

Thanks guys.... Glad everyone had fun. It was a lot of work, but it makes it totally worth it hearing how much fun everyone had. We definitely couldn't do it without the sponsors. Special thanks to Mr. Joe Mitchell and JMI Contractors. Without him I don't think we could've gotten half of the talent out. Be on the lookout for the full story with more pics.

Thanks guys. It's all made possible by the sponsors. Support the companies that support the Spring Ride! It's a win win for all of us.

Next year; maybe more pro riders and more raffle prizes...who knows.

jrod, what about the cie crew dress up like the village people, and do a routine?!?!?! SICK!

Have a pose off in the bar for the muscle necks. They seemed in dire need of attention, and I think someone stole their shirts.

Cudos for busting you butt all weekend J-rod. It made our trip worthwhile.

Great work guys. It was another great event. It's great to see NorCal representing in full effect. Hope to see all of you and more at the next DRA event! Can't wait until next year's CIE spring ride!

Sombreros off to the CIE crew once again!! Each year the event gets better and better! The vibe was excellent, the rider list was just plain silly, and the beer flowed like wine!

Thanks to you guys my liver hurts and I'm sun burnt...

Hey! When is "CIE Summer Ride"?

Hats off to CIE!!!

Dave..... The summer ride is coming.... Be on the look out. We've already got the location and the idea for a comp. Now we just need a date. Keep your calanders clear for a September-ish weekend. The location is killer for a huge group of Wake Worlders.

It is so awesome that you guys see the work that goes into throwing an event. I know that the last TWO years we have tried to get there and something or another always comes up. Man,I hate myself on Saturday morning.
I have not heard anything but great things about this event and I look forward to finally getting to one and making it a yearly trek.I saw alot of familiar faces in the shots both of riders, family of riders and spectators as well.
To all those that worked their asses off, thanks for enriching the sport!!

Hats off to the whole CIE crew. You guys know how to put on an event. Everything went off flawlessly. We had a blast. I can't wait to try out my new surf board! Woo-Hoo!! Your new boat looked fantastic.
