60 miles? What was I thinking? Non-athletic me, setting a ride goal like this at the brink of “old!” I think I can, I think I can gets me to mile 30. Hopefully ride-day adrenalin and great biking comrades will push me forward for a full 60 miles on July 25th.
60 riders? This goal would be a cinch, I thought. With over two weeks from the ride date on July 25, I just need 3 more people to sign on! I wonder who they will be.
Most people I know can ride a bike. Some are avid riders like my cousin Amelia, a full-time educator, who rides 30- 40 miles every day – amazing woman! I’m so honored she is joining my ride. High school classmates, Toby and Marlin, are distance riders, you know, the ride across PA types. I was confident they’d join this ride. Then there’s Gale, my racing rider, nephew and regular bikers to work, Jean and Philip. New to the riding circuit is my good friend, Barb, my sister in-law Cheryl and my brother Dwight. Horary for their spunk in accepting this challenge! The list goes on – some, like Willean, who haven’t biked for years are stepping on the pedal. Uncle Dick and Aunt Joy are driving from Indiana, cousins and friends are coming from Virginia. The list goes, on - my pastor is riding, friends from church, board members and their friends. Each rider is a special gift to my mother and me and our goals! Special thanks to each one!
