Way to go! You rock for sticking to your goal - and on vacation no less (all the more reason we should take more vacations, right?).
Keep up the good work and keep us posted on your progress.Dar

That's great!! I'll never forget the first time I rode 50 miles- it was on a mountain bike at Ididaride. 50 miles is a huge milestone!!
