    From Fatty's site...

    201: The "201" on the left sleeve goes with the Fat Cyclist Clydesdale logo. Since 200 pounds is the traditional threshold for being in the Clydesdale category, this jersey goes to 201.

    I wore mine for the first time yesterday. It is an extremely comfortable jersey and I love that the bottom doesn't have elastic. I'm planning on wearing it Sunday for the Austin LiveStrong Challenge ride...along with my pink "cancer sucks" socks.

    Funny. I'm planning on wearing mine with MY pink "cancer sucks" sock this weekend on the 3-Day! It will be under my Route Safety crew shirt, but I'll know it's there...
    For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

    Just to keep Fat Cyclist fans updated: According to Elden's Facebook status, he met with a hospice nurse last night. That doesn't sound good, obviously, so I'm sure he and the family can use all of our prayers, virtual hugs, best wishes and good thoughts.

    Random babblings and some stuff to look at.

    I cannot even fathom what he's going through. Much less to be able to write about it, and share it with the world. Their kids are lucky to have someone with such grace and dignity to take care of them.

    Have a box of kleenex handy when you do.

    Susan's journey sounds so much like a late friend of mine's. It's painful on two levels.

    Ditto. I can't bring myself to keep reading it. Way too painful and close to home. I can only hope the best for her family. They've gone through one helluva journey together already.
