He doubled over with laughter. Now I know why my people thought photos stole the soul!!
Oh, LLB, I hear you!
Did you get the flyer in the mail yet?
DH and I just got them today. OMG!!! I looked like a big yellow blimp on a bike 2 sizes too small!
If that's what my soul looks like, they can have it!! I KNOW I looked more like a cyclist and less like a dork than those pictures indicated.
Ah, well. We have our accomplishment to remember, if not the pictures.
