As an avid follower of my friend and teammate Mathew Arnold I have come to enjoy the race commentary of the racers this year and will continue to follow in future years because of it. After listening to all of Dave's call ins over the last several weeks it seems as though he had a real passion for the sport and would want everyone to continue you on in his memory.

This is only the opinion of an outsider cyclist who is living vicariously through you all but I believe we all have similar thoughts and love for the sport.

Well said Matthew and safe travels through the detour and to the finish.

I think Matthew's decision to continue in Dave's memory was extremely moving to me even though I do not know either of them. Your words on your call in dedicating the race to Dave moved me to tears. Good luck to all of you still out there and be safe...you have my utmost respect.
