Mv to ride location page

Suggestion (by User:Nsayers): Local media coverage links should be moved to the Ride Location pages to which they refer (thus decreasing the size of this page).

I would like to wait to do this until old media coverage is updated to proper formatting so we don't have to hunt through dozens of pages making formatting corrections, which costs valuable time.D 14:03, 15 Mar 2006 (PST)
Do you agree with me about the formatting? ie: Rather than the Wikipedia recommendation, use:
[Source], place, date: "[Quote]" --Nsayers 11:52, 18 Mar 2006 (PST)
