Yeah, be a terrific role model for your girls and be sure to hydrate lots before this weekend...hopefully, you're continuously sipping water today too.
I remember that each son, separately, told me that they were proud of me, after I completed my first long ride - what a lift!
Now, while they are active in athletics, competitive and full of energy themselves, each of them admits that they cannot do what I do on a bike...it's pretty cool to hear your kids admire you in a sport - my younger son even drove the SAG vehicle on a 2 week ride I did last year. He was a huge help and we both treasure the experience we had together.
Go for it and have tons of fun!
