Crosscountrycancer’s Weblog

Well, we trained, a little, but not much. This could be “the year of pain”. Oh well, the fact is that I get to ride my bike through beautiful country for 600 miles with people I like. That doesn’t really sound too bad. Better yet, we get to raise money for a Center that does work that needs to be done. Surviving cancer as a child is not the end of the issue. Surviving life as a survivor of childhood cancer is not always easy. The Center and the 3 or 4 like it really help these people.
So now the ride looks like a pretty good deal, trained or not.

And it’s not like we didn’t want to train.  The weather was bad, relatives came in from out of town, we ran out of gas — it wasn’t our fault.  Still, fat and flabby is no way to approach the land of beer and bratwurst!  On Wisconsin!  On to the land of cheese curds and brew pubs.  We forge ahead to St. Cloud and beyond undaunted by the pitiful state of our training.   We are on a worthy mission for a worthy cause.  Last one to the Wisconsin state line buys the first round!!   Jim
