Aids Ride June 1 to June 7

Snap, I forgot that you know him and other TE ALC'ers know the Chicken Lady too.

I've heard he started the tradition of faster/stronger riders repeating a hill, descending and then going back up encouraging slower riders by doing that many times on one of the New York rides.

In my case he helped me with just a simple look. On ALC 3 I had overpacked, as I struggled with a rolling duffle I saw him with just a tiny carry-on size bag (don't know how he does it!!). He just smiled and shook his head.

I've packed light ever since and will do so on any tour.

Ken (aka Chicken Lady) was at camp at Ventura and read us a poem. He is going to recover fully, and my guess that one way or another, he will be with the ride next year.

Wouldn't be right without the Chicken Lady! I'm glad to hear he's doing well, I've no doubt he'll be on the ride next year.

I put my pictures on flckr, how do I invite the group? Sorry I'm so technically challenged.

This was my third year and I signed up again for next year. I can somehow ride this ride without a bit of hesitation at all. The wind did get to me more than previous years, but since it was not new to me it was okay. The views are fantastic and the comraderie is the best. I love spending a week in this utopia cycling world.
