OT-update on bike ride
Todd (DS) finished the Diabetes Ride on Saturday. He completed the whole ride with out having to have assistance. Said he would do it again, but not this week. There was only one day of pouring rain, and of course it was in the mountains. These are his stats: Total distance: 568.25 mi Total time in the saddle: 36h 59m Total est. climb: 27,000 feet Longest day: 104.73 miles, 7h 10m Max speed reached: 46.0 mph Max grade climbed: 15% Met lots of nice people, raised lots of money. His pledges even surprised him! Thanks for all the good thoughts. It is soooo nice to have people to worry with me. Since Tyler had to drop out- GO LANCE!!! Anna Belle in Palm Bay |

Geebus, that's an impressive climb. Plateau-de-Beille in the Pyrenees is only 8% and it's totally brutal.
