Ohhhhhhh Denise, I'm so tempted to come out and do that ride! It's all my favorite things: riding, Arizona, hot air balloons, BBQ and cycling nuts like myself. I would LOVE to meet you, and to see my home state of AZ again....I do miss her.
I'll seriously consider it, as we are on Fall Break from school that weekend, and I might be able to swing it (but only if DH can get off because I won't drive 20+ hours alone). Thanks for the invite! I'll PM you if I'm going to make it out that way.
