The end of Osnap Led MNR...

I have led Monday Night Rehab for a long time. I have done everything I wanted to do and more. I was able to meet more people than I every imagined I could and became great friends with a lot of people.
After almost 3 years .....I think I'm done leading.
I have gotten to the point I think its time I move on to something else. Obviously this is a hard for me to even say when I have spent so much time/energy leading. I took this as long as I thought I needed to. Im sure this is going to come as a shock to people as I haven't told anyone yet. I took what someone gave to me and made it grow into something that I never thought would be as awesome as it is... I loved every minute of doing it and have memories that I will have for the rest of my life. I thank everyone for coming out and being supportive of me. I Its kind crazy I never thought would get emotional about the day I posted this but after like 30 minutes of posting this ... wrong....I put in a lot of work and its like watching your kid go off to college but I know its for the better.
So now the search for my replacement starts......
I will probably lead the month out 2 more then that is it.....

This is a helluva loss for us all but hopefully it will lead to positive things for u and yours. Job well done on the ride thus far, wish u luck in the future. Does it mean u will continue to lead other rides? Perhaps on other nites and in other parts of LA in the future?

Passing the torch is the usual name of the game when it comes to MR rides.
Sometimes it leads to something entirely new and exciting, sometimes it dwindles on for a bit after and then fades out.
Anywho, it was good while it lasted and you did one of the finest jobs I've seen to this date.
As per ride leadership, this sort of thing always rolls smoothly when the ride-master is a local or semi-local kid.
Plate-stepping time.
