The time to ride has come. Last night Team Lick Cancer had a kickoff pasta party. It was a great time and nice to see people off of their bikes. I am new to this team so I did not know most of the people prior to training for the PMC. Kudos go out to the Christmas family for opening up their house to us. Especially Mrs Christmas who found some toys to entertain little Jordan.
Today we leave Acton at 1:00 sharp. I have to say that I am excited, nervous, and already emotional about the coming two days. Luckily I think the team will walk me through the logistics of the weekend and I just have to pedal.
Speaking of pedaling, I am pretty satisfied with my training up to this point. I will always feel that I could have done more, gone for more rides, ridden further, but I think I am prepared for the weekend.
I would like to thank everyone for their support. This is not something that can be done alone and I have been touched by the donations and more importantly the kind words I have received. Most importantly I would like to thank Annie. I know she doesn't read this but she has been extremely supportive of this endeavor. From suggesting that I sign up, to paying for a new bike, to watching me go out for 3-4 hour rides each weekend, she has been awesome. I am already looking forward to seeing her and Jordan at the Wareham water stop on Saturday.
I will try to update this as soon as I get back on Monday.
Steve
