Denise is holding up. I'm going to see her Friday. The doctor recommends swimming so we're going to enjoy some cool water on a hot day. Sounds like she'll be out for at least 8 weeks

Wow - what a great report and beautiful photos!! Too bad about the whole lightning/derailleur thing, but sometimes it just isn't meant to be. Glad you had fun.
Was that the Denise I met on Ebbetts? Big bummer!! 8 weeks! I have to say from personal experience, sometimes being ordered off the bike can improve your cycling and your attitude in the long run. But it's tough while it's going on.

Wow Cindy - what an adventure! Those pictures are amazing - it's hard to imagine that much climbing, day after day, at that altitude!
Have you decided about the Death Ride?Keep calm and carry on...

nope- Denise Yates, the other Denise on the team. She has a super positive attitude about the whole thing. She had a good day in the pool and seems well on the way to recovery...

Cindy Sue - Wonderful Ride Report! I'm glad you had a good time and good rides. Too bad about the derailleur and the lightning. We get lightning like that around here too and it's best to head for low ground. Lots of people get hit around here!
Sorry about Denise too. I'm wondering if I rode with her and Pat when I came out to ride with Pat on the cindarella ride? I'm thinking that I might have.
