    major event for me! Don't laugh!

    Well yeterday I went on my first 25 mile ride. I know for some of you this is no big. But it was for me. I did everything right and feel no pain today. I want to thank those of you who gave me info on how to train right. I think when my big trip comes around in sept I will be ready for it. If I can just keep doing this. Some times it is ard to find that much time to ride. Thanks again and te ride by the way is alot of steep hill climbing. I was able to talk while climbing the hill too. Not to myself but my riding buddy.
    Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

    Excellent, Brandi! Being able to talk while climbing is _really_ an accomplishment!

    Good job Brandi! And yeah, 25 miles is quite an accomplishment! Esp. where you ride!! Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you pretty much ALWAYS have to deal w/ some sort of wind? And the CA coastline! puuullleeeze! Not flat thats for sure!!
    Good on you!!

    Congrats on the increased distance!! Don't talk your accomplishment down, that's great!! I probably couldn't keep up, I'm spoiled with flat terrain here in MI...hills change everything.

    Great job Brandi! I'm hoping to hit 25 miles this spring/summer - with no hills! You should be proud!
