Where is the race? When? Can you preride the course? Ride with your teammates before the race if you can. Oh, there's plenty more to say, what do you want to know!

You're going to have a blast!

Well, I'd like to have the 8 kids I'm a houseparent for come and be the support team with one of my support houseparents. That would be such an awesome experience for them! I know at least 6 or 7 kids that would love to be involved. There is no housing for us, but tents will be fine. Maybe we can bring a really giant one and some air mattresses. That would be good

The best part is that the race course is a mile from my home. I've been on the terrain many times before so I know what to expect at least a bit. I rode with two of my team mates yesterday on the road and tomorrow the same two and I will do a mountain bike ride. Jeremiah will leave me in his dusty wake, but Mark will stay with me. We're not racing tomorrow after all

Yay I'm psyched!
