Fellow members, Attached should be 3 rule proposals that have been submitted for discussion and voting at the annual meeting. Please treat this announcement as if it was in a printed copy of the IHMSA News from years gone by. Just the messenger here, I don't have a dog in this fight. Rich Hawkins 20...

WOW! 332 and counting, that is so awesome! More women and juniors, and now the online apparel store is open. Thank you Jim for all the work you do!

Original thread started a year ago. So Part 2 begins here, a year later, a year older, a year more wear on our bodies, eyes, knees, etc. What are your thoughts now? Any change? Before starting this thread, I reviewed all 5 pages of the original thread. Some good comments to be sure, but never a cons...
