Here's the card I picked up for Homey. It's from www.amandahancocks.com and is actually a family photo. Kind of neat.

penultimate!
Good word!
I'm in! I helped out last year on BJ with the wheel replacement fund. Let's hope they don't need that again!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks! I got your PM and replied.
Bump!
I got the call from Bernie last night...er, rather he left a message on my cell phone because I was in the grocery store without my phone :( . Anyway, he sounded great. He was very thankful to everyone who contributed to their effort!
SadieKate is next on the phone call list!
Shucks. I missed Bernie's call at 8:31, but he sounded happy and upbeat. I guess he should since it's the only the 8th time station, though by this time last year he had a ton of stitches in him.
If someone gets to talk to him, wish him the best!
And maybe don't tell him that I was having Prime Tenderloin and Creme Brulee at Wolfgang Puck's Spago in Las Vegas. :p
Heck, if I won anything it would have been shared with you on bike parts or ice cream or beer or whatever it would have afforded. Spago was yummy but I'M FREAKIN' SICK OF BEING COOPED UP WITH MY FELLOW INMATES!
Sorry, feeling a little claustrophic. :o
Bernie called about 7:00Pm tonight. He's in the Show-me state(also, my native state) at Collins, MO Sounded great! I was at a bike club board meeting, so I could not talk very long, Really didn't want to take much of his time, and the cell reception was bad.
Go Team JDRF!
woo hoo! bernie just called!! it isn't my official time station yet, but I think he just eanted to check in. I asked where they were and he wasn't entirely sure, but said somewhere in Ohio.
he sounded great - very good spirits. about 500 miles to go - they're on the home stretch!!
Excellent ! :cool:
MP - I'm so glad you posted! I got a call yesterday too, at about 3:00 pm, just as I was heading into a conference call, and after that I was without any posting capability until just now (my 6-year old nephew and 2-year old niece are visiting - it's like living in a hurricane :eek: I don't know how all you parents do it!)
But yes - he sounded great, and said the ride is going very well, and wanted to thank everyone for the support. :)
Just got my call from Bernie - they're still in PA, but rapidly approaching Jersey, woo-hoo !
He said they're in rain and thudershowers right now, and he said something about a tornado warning (ack!!). I asked him if wind was a problem, and he said they were experiencing a lot of side winds.
The connection was pretty bad, and just as I asked him if there was anything he wanted to say to the folks on bikejournal & TE, the connection died.
In theory I may hear again from him, or someone else on the team, in a couple of hours - I'm getting the calls both from TS 55, Delaware Mem Bridge (the one they're approaching), and TS 56 in McKee City, NJ which is the last timestation before the finish.
So please feel free to let me know if there's anything you want me to tell them as they approach the finish !
Wooohooo!!!! They finished a little after 4 this morning!
