    WOW Congratulations!
    What a great ride report.
    I am inspired by your strength to keep going even when things were getting hard.
    WELL DONE!

    I will think of you when I am being a baby on a ride.

    Wow, Melissa!! That's one of the best ride reports I've read in a LONG time! And I agree - next time I'm tempted to walk one of our wimpy little hills, I'll think of you
