What you might be missing from the photo...

Pink Keen shoes
Pink "Cancer Sucks" socks
Boa on top tube, another boa on seattube and rack
Pink feather tiara on pink helmet
Flashing pink reflective safety vest
Pink polar bottles

Yup. All in the name of Susan G. Komen.

I should add that in that outfit, at camp that night, I met and thanked Nancy Brinker. Nancy made a promise to her sister as the sister was dying of breast cancer that she would do what she could to find a cure for the disease. Her sister's name? Susan G. Komen.

In that outfit, I called my sister, a survivor, to remind her how much I love her too.

Pedal Wench:
GREAT FABULOUS PHOTO! You look Mahvelous Darling!

Glad the 3-day went well. You are doing 3 next year? Hmmm... Makes me think I'm not doing enough! Congrats on yet another successful 3-day. Come and crew the San Francisco one next year -- I'll be there walking!

Here's to the WEARING OF THE PINK!!!!

[Pedal Wench]

Oooh. San Fran? Nice route? Scenery? I could be into that in a heartbeat!!!

I just did DC last week, and Atlanta on Oct 24-26. Woohoo!!!

I'm gonna look into San Fran. How fun to meet a TE'er on the 3-Day!

I thought I looked marvelous too!!!

Ah... and now I know The Rest of the Story.

Excellent.

I looked at the photos from SF -- it just looks so beautiful! And I met a guy on the Seattle walk who did SF as well as almost all the rest (he does about 10 BC events a year). He said it's his favorite route.

And, well, you can't beat the idea of a couple days in Napa in the fall to follow! (Think barrel tasting! )

BTW: Just came across this from the Pink Wing gals... I'm thinking you may be the perfect person to wear this!
Are those pink keens she's wearing?

Oh!!! That pin is perfect!!! Thanks for posting!

Yeah, SF is looking better and better. I'll look into their bike crew requirements.

Thanks!

Okay.

SF dates are too close to DC -- it would be too hard to get my bike shipped back to ATL and then up to DC.

So, I signed up for Denver. This is their first year there, and I don't know if they plan on including bikes in Route Safety. But, I volunteered to help get them up and running. Why do I get myself into this stuff????

[jesvetmed]

Enjoy Denver -- should be fun doing the first.
Maybe we'll run into each other at one of these some day! I'll be last in in the walk line and you'll be bringing up the rear!

Pedal wench, do post about the crew for DC again next year. I toyed with signing up to join in this year but ended up not doing it because I was leaving a few days later for Paris. It was a trip planned quickly because my sister, in treatment for lung cancer, was on a 'drug holiday' and feeling so good she wanted to go and eat and drink her way around Paris with me and our other sister.

But my one sister and I both think that helping out with our bikes next year would be a lot of fun, so I hope you remind the board about it and I hope my schedule permits.

Love the pic!!

Pedalwench: Why don't you have your bike shipped from SF directly to DC? Does it have to go through ATL?

Ooh! My first double quote, after 4 years!

You can sign up NOW! They won't assign you to route safety right away, but if they use a first come/first served approach, you'll want to be on the list early. I'm signed up. Lemme know your names so when we get assignments going, I can make sure you're on the list.

I don't really know how I'll be getting to DC. So, if I don't have a car (this year, tagged along with a Moto crew member) I wouldn't be able to pick up my bike from wherever I shipped it to. I'm cool with Denver. SF the year after! (Yup, it's that addicting!)

Possegal - did you sign up? Let me know and I'll put in a good word with the crew captain!

Ha... just read this thread again. Well, we decided to stay in Seattle for the 3-Day this year, instead of going to San Francisco. Wasn't going to work out for a member who was going on a huge trip during that time. Bummer. But, turning out to be a good thing -- we are having trouble with fund raising this year (as is everyone else, I'm sure), so adding travel funds to that would have been tough!

Good luck to you all!

[Pedal Wench]

Ha - something just happened that only you would understand. A commercial for Planet Earth just came on the TV,and they're using the music from our closing ceremonies (Sigur Ros) and I instantly get goosebumps...

I'm officially in for Denver, DC and Atlanta! But, post up when you get your page open - I don't have to meet a minimum, so I would rather make sure you get to walk and meet your fundraising goals.
