Although I wasn't able to get to the Empire State AIDS Ride end point in time on Saturday, I did get to meet Mary and her partner Linda for lunch today. They both looked amazingly energetic for folks who had slept in a tent for a week. They are great women and, just think, I wouldn't have gotten to meet them if not for the Team Estrogen board!
Mary is making quite a trip of it, traveling about seeing family and friends. She had some very heartwarming stories of the ride -- perhaps Mary will share some of them with us when she returns.
What a great reminder that we can ride, have fun, doing something healthy, remember those near and dear to us, and raise needed funds for charities with these rides.
