The Ride went great yesterday! You couldn't have asked for better weather. Mostly sunny, not too hot with a slight breeze for the better part of the day. The day was filled with incredible personal stories of experiences dealing with breast cancer. While emotional, everyone was happy to be there, either celebrating those who lost there battle, or those who have survived and are there simply to help those others still battling. If ever you need strength in a battle of your own, knowing/listening/hearing what some of these women, as well as men and their familes, have gone through can certainly inspire anyone to be motivated.
As for the photos taken throughout the day, we did our best to capture everyone and everything we could. We did our best to capture the activities around base camp, at the aid stations we were able to get to, as well as many riders as we could doing their respective rides, whether on the 27, 57 or 97 mile rides.
I am grateful for my experience working with all of the volunteers and Komen Foundation for this ride, and not just looking forward to getting photos up, but look forward to the future possibilites in the coming years. To everyone who was involved in this ride, I commend you on a job well done, and congratulate those who did there best and gave their all on the routes, both volunteers and riders.
Also a big congratulations to Tracy and Todd on doing an absolutely AWESOME job with getting the ride to come together. They not only met but exceeded their expectations for the ride in both the number of riders, but in the overall funds raised. Todd & Tracy:
