Good Morning!! It's the day 1 of the MS 150 ride. I'm so thankful for all of your love and support on this ride. Keep all of the riders in your prayers today! I'll check in after the first 75 miles!!

We've arrived!!

In case you didn't know....bikes go in the room. Too much money invested to keep them in the car with the possibility of them being stolen. That would NOT be a good thing!
Unloading the car one bike at a time :)
Seems like we left HOURS ago but we finally made it to the hotel in Miami after a few wrong turns. A car full of technology and we still had to do a few u turns. A room full of bikes, an air mattress bigger than my bed and we're ready to turn in for the night. I'm very tired and a bit nervous about tomorrow. Heard that there will be 15 mile an hour head winds (blowing straight at us) which has me worried since that makes the 75 miles all the harder. Wake up call is set for 5:45am so I'd better get to bed. Nighty Night! Ok, so I'm a little excited too ;)



The Last Supper


The Sequoia is packed... 2 bikes & 5 bags inside and 3 bikes on the rack in back. Everyone is starving so we decided to stop at Carrabba's on the way to Alligator Alley (which is finally open after a few days of closures due to fires) We're off! After a nice dinner at Carrabba's the five of us (Dr. Will, Amy, Jonathan, John & Chrissy) jump back in the truck and discuss the events for tomorrow. Oh the anticipation!!
