2009 Tour de Cure

First let me start with saying thanks to everyone that donated this year. Also I want to say thanks my friends Jason & Jackie, Mary, that did the ride and raised a bunch of money. Most importantly my wife she organized the team again this year and raised a good chunk of money herself.
The day started out rushed as these things usually do, but they were late getting it going, which is usually the case with big events like this. It worked out good this year since everyone was running late, except us. ;) This is year is the first year I did the ride, and even got a red rider jersey.
The course left island lake and rode the path over to kennsington. From there we followed the road around the lake and then back out the main entrance and back into island lake on the paved path. It was a little bit over 25 miles which we all finished and everyone had a good time doing the ride, even if some of the hills were walked.
If you havent ever done of these it is a cool atmosphere, and a lot of fun that I suggest doing at least once.
