I had never heard of the "Little Red Riding Hood Bicycle Ride", just saw a clip of the 2010 on YouTube, also now realise what charity it is for, fantastic. Have a fab time riding with the girls.

In a month or so and you fancy a bit of a moan or rant, just stick up a thread and we will all be there for you.

the best part about the ride, at least according to my sister who has done it several times, is that the rest/SAG stops are all staffed by volunteer guys dressed up as wolves.

I love the shoestring idea, I will have to admit that the whole drain thing is probably the most daunting think in my mind right now.

As for recovery, the worst part will be until I can drive again. Here in Texas, without being able to drive, you are basically housebound. I can deal with it except for the fact that the resident 90 year old FIL gets really stir crazy unless he can get to the gym 2x a week.

I am already eyeing the recumbent bike at the local gym and the fixed arm elliptical machine and figuring it will give the the incentive to bite down, ignore the pain, get my arm working and up over my head so I can drive. I also figure that the dogs will be getting lots and lots of walkies.
