Hello World

It's that time again... the second ever Ravenchase Great America Race is upon us and we're back with an all new roster!  Besides myself (Rich Bragg), the only returning Great America Racer, we've got Dan Egnor of the Burninators, Todd Etter of Boneless Chicken Cabaret, and Jonathan McCue of the Smoking GNU.

First things first, we need to get things set up so people can follow the blog.  We'll do it a lot like we did in 2007 - there are a couple steps to be a fully functional follower.

1. As this is a private blog, you need to be added to the access list.  If you are reading this, that has already happened, but I leave it here for completeness.  If you know others that want to follow along, ask any one of the four of us on the team to add them.
2. If you want real time notifications when we put up new posts, or when people make comments, I highly recommend you also join our Google Group.  This will ensure that posts and comments are delivered to your inbox in real time.

This should be a great trip, and the input of our followers makes it even more memorable.  I look forward to sharing our adventures with you all!
