I realize I look super, duper crappy in this picture, but I had been on a bike for 8 hours straight!
Cross it off my list! I finished my first 102 mile bike ride on Saturday. My legs are broken. I did this race with my best friend, Jill. We can reel each other in to anything. She was all festive for the occasion putting red ribbons in her hair, red lipstick, and gold shimmer hairspray. Gotta love Jill! It was an amazing ride with crappy weather. It was rainy, sunny, windy (90% of the time), and freezing cold. Of course I was a little unprepared and realized the night before in our hotel that I forgot my sunglasses, extra water bottle, and gloves (a must on a long ride). However, no worries, I bummed all of these items off some ladies in our hotel in the morning. I have no shame. Here is to one more race this week and I can finally rest for a good portion of the summer.

I DID NOT know that Jillers was a Biker- Babe too!!! SOOOO jealous of you crazy girls with such ambition! Congrats on the finish! WOW!!
You guys are the best - and leave it to Jill to dress festive. Did she wear the hat for eight hours?
I'm so proud of both of you!
Something tells me that you probably won't take a break for the rest of the summer. Can't wait to hear the details about Saturday. We miss you guys already.
