My Latest Race

Saturday, September, 25th I did a 65 mile bicycle ride. It wouldn't have been so hard if I didn't get cramps, I got off the bike at the 40 mile mark, I couldn't walk my legs just got a cramp right over the knee. I had to ride with many people, my favorite was a 60 year old with diabetes. He stayed with me even on the highways with no shoulder. I felt bad for my Dad we were camping that night and didn't get to sleep until about 11 o'clock at night. We had rest stops every 15 miles, my Dad loved those they had really got bananas, water, and subway cookies (they were great). When I got back from the 65 mile the area of Benld Illinois was having their town Festival. At the registration they supplied us with free tickets to get a sandwich/hamburger and a soft drink.
