Back in my advocacy days, I rode sag for a ride our group did to highlight an on-road bike route we were trying to extend. The experience really brought out the "mother hen" in me, as I drove hundreds of miles that day, back and forth, tracking down lost riders, rushing water and snacks up to rest stops and making sure the pizza was there at the end of the ride! Oh, and I carted 4 sweaty cyclists and their bikes back to the start (it was a straight-line ride from Cape Ann (Rockport) to Cape Cod, Massachusetts). Looong day!

More recently, I was "shower monitor" for an MS-150 ride when I was still on crutches after knee surgery. They paired me up with this poor woman who was 8.5 months pregnant and looked very uncomfortable, but she wanted to volunteer anyway, bless her. Our job was to try to keep some order to the chaotic shower rooms....one in, one out....but I don't know how successful we were!
