yay $4,000

Wahooooo! I hit the $4,000 mark today :) I'm very excited to know I won't have to pay anything for the trip, but am of course still accepting donations as they are going to a good cause. 

I went for a bike ride today, a very cold and windy one... I'm also heading to the gym to do some cross-training. My good bike is in the shop getting some work done on the handle bars so that they are more comfortable, and so today's ride was on my specialized bike. I noticed the difference of how it felt, and of course in how heavy this bike was. Basically, I'm extremely happy with my choice to upgrade to the Giant Advanced. 

Thanks to Bryon Martinez and Anne Buckley for their donation!
