My First Group Ride Experience

Thanks! I couldn't stop smiling this afternoon. It is amazing how fast and hour 40 goes by when you are doing something you love to do!

Todays ride isn't the one in my avatar/siggie. That ride on November 7th. That one will be for the ALS Association Florida Chapter, something that is very close to my heart. My Dad passed away from ALS in 2005 and since then I do whatever it takes to raise money for them. Today's ride was Trek Breast Cancer Awareness ride.

Congratulations, Annie! It sounds like you had a lot of fun, and for a good cause, too. Did they have the roads blocked off for that many riders coming through?

Thanks Roxy! They didn't have ANY road blocked none. The groups had leaders and sweepers and they were "assisting" with the intersections. Our group rolled through several red lights along the way.

Woohoo to a successful and fun ride! You look great and very proud standing next to your bike!

Whoo hoo! Great job! I love charity rides with SAG vehicles and rest stops. My you ride in many, many more!

wasn't it neat thinking that other riders across the country were riding for the same cause? Glad you had fun!
