Malletpois! Oh how cool, you "met" Raleighdon, (but i've still never met you!) congrats on your super achiever child!!
Raleighdon was definitely rocket powered. And today he rode about 50 miles and then he got tired and stopped.

Whew! Glad everybody is safe!
Here's my "brag." Five years ago, DH was diagnosed with colon cancer & given a very bad prognosis. Yesterday he rode the 35 mile. I caught up with him and we road in & crossed the finish line together. It was awesome.
We went through a year of complete hell with surgery, MRSA, blood clots, a week in ICU, infections of unknown origins, pic lines, wound vac machines that didn't work, vancomycin drips (2X day for 2 hours each) chemo and eventual repair of hernia (caused by getting violently ill from chemo). Today, he's doing great! (I'm a little nervous about the 5 year checkup, but I'm always nervous before those...)To train a dog, you must be more interesting than dirt.
