Good morning, everyone.
Back on 17 May I shared info about my crashing out of the cross country bike tour I was doing to support ovarian cancer research and outreach. I'm now well enough to try finishing what I started, and so will meet the tour group in Missoula, MT. tomorrow and hopefully stay upright long enough to reach Florence, OR, a distance of about 900 miles.
Many members have sent messages of support and encouragement, and I thank you all. If you'd care to ride along, check out my blog at: https://www.ridingforovariancancer.com/ . The remaining Adventure Cycling Association tour survivors (10, counting me, of the original 15) have ridden almost 3,000 miles, so they will either be ultra-fit or exhausted. We'll see if I can stay with the herd going through bear country.
I hope all of you are having a great start to summer and enjoying riding with the VBC. I'll see you in mid-July.
