I finally got around to finishing my ride report of the 2013 edition of the London-Edinburgh-London 1418km randonnee. While one of the hardest things I've ever done, LEL was also one of the most rewarding.

Most days in life don't stand out, But life's about those days that will...
What a great chronicle of an adventure in believing in your self…..with words/moments I can carry with me during hard climbs or long rides!!!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!!!!

Thanks, ladies! Yes, it was quite the adventure... It's hard to *remember* to believe in yourself when you are exhausted and feeling hopeless. I have a T-shirt that says "Belive you can and you're halfway there.". Words to live by.

Forwarded to a rando-friend, and to another friend who is dating a rando-rider. Not sure which one appreciated it more.
I absolutely loved this report. This ride is completely on my not likely but a girl can dream bucket list. Your reports are so much fun to read.
Thanks!
