The Select Health Medical tent, sorry about the quality, it is a cell phone pic!
Here are some of the group I was riding with, there 2 girls and 4 guys all of us from the same team.
Me while riding down the road. Notice the sky, NO CLOUDS! This is what the weather guys call "Severe Clear"
This is one TIRED puppy who just finished. In fact I was so tired I had trouble raising my hands in exultation at finishing!
Today was my Tour de Cure day. I was up at 5:00 am, drove to Brigham City, got breakfast and started riding about 7:45. Some of the other members of team Select Health, were impressed with my ability to stay with them. They were riding road bikes I ride a mountain bike with slick tires. (Compared with knobbies for dirt traction.) I had (repeat HAD) been planning on a nice 26 mile ride, back to the high school and putting my feet up. Well these yahoos played on my macho, I wana challenge myself, tendancies. Ending up with me riding the 69.6 mile loop instead of the 26 miler............sigh... My bottom hurts, major areas of redness and a few blisters. OW!!!!!
Anyway, I am VERY proud of myself for pushing through and finishing the ride. Just wish I would have felt better the last 15 miles (into the wind I might add!).
Next year I will expect to do this again, but will only do 26 for sure!!
