Day on the Ride-- the Reader's Digest Version

Jerry and I had signed up for the 80-mile day on the ride, but considering it was our first time out in three weeks, and he still had quite a cough, we did the abbreviated 40-mile version. Day on the Ride simulates the "real" ride-- rest stops, sweeps, motorcycle crew.

Once again, the Positive Pedalers were the "roadies" for rest stop #1. Hugs and kisses for my friends, and a promise to follow up with Gabo about an idea for a book he has.

We rode strong, despite having been off the tandem for weeks. We were one of the first people back to the City-County Building, where they fed us mounds of spaghetti and Caesar salad. We were hungry, so everything tasted great.

Dinner was popcorn and a soda at the movies. We saw "the Visitor," a wonderful, small film. The main character did quite a bit of changing of his life. Gives me inspiration to do good things.
