    You know, someone who knows you like that and can encourage you in the way that will bring you the most satisfaction is really worth their weight in gold. You are a tough lady.

    As for pain threshold...I am the biggest baby!! My dentist knows I get an extra shot of novacain without asking...my surgeon learned I needed a whole different class of pain relief than her other patients with the same operation...I am truly a sensitive baby! I am now officially terrified to ever ride with you!! LOL

    Very impressive! I chickened out of the Tahoe-Sierra Century ride. I hear it rained the entire time, sometimes zero visibility, and it was so cold that people were shaking and going numb.They finally closed Hwy 40 at Donner Lake, due to snow. Not sure if anyone completed the entire Century.

    You are one tough chickie!
