My daughter is a marathon runner and an adventure racer. Her new pink bike is her first road bike. She plans to ride the DALMAC with her husband in late Auguest. Distances of up to 100 miles a day for a four or five day supported ride. I had hoped to ride with them this year but, darn, hubby and I have planned an Alaskan cruise for that same week! Maybe next year. She has been letting me train with her a bit. We make a pretty pair. Her with her new pink bike, and me on my new (purchased in April of this year) Celeste (aqua) Bianchi.
